“At 6 pM, CGRP decreased alanine absorption by 33%.”
“In in vivo experiments using the single-pass perfusion technique, intravenous infusion of CGRP (250-750 pmol/kg-min) reduced alanine absorption by 35-40%.”
“In vitro experiments using isolated jejunal strips showed that CGRP reduced alanine absorption in a dose-dependent manner.”
“Similarly, intracerebral injection of CGRP decreased alanine absorption, an effect which was reduced by vagotomy.”
