α-Calcitonin gene related peptide (human) is a potent, long-lasting vasodilator which possesses protective mechanisms for physiological and pathological conditions involving the cardiovascular system and wound healing. CGRP is primarily released from sensory nerves and can function in the transmission of nociception.  α-Calcitonin gene related peptide (human) acts as an appetite suppressant and contributes to gastric acid secretion.
