calcitonin receptor binding
Processes
adenylate cyclase-activating G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway / intracellular calcium ion homeostasis / regulation of cytosolic calcium ion concentration
Components
extracellular space
General Function
CGRP induces vasodilation. It dilates a variety of vessels including the coronary, cerebral and systemic vasculature. Its abundance in the CNS also points toward a neurotransmitter or neuromodulator role
