“Dex alone (10(-6) M) elicited a 2-fold increase in CGRP mRNA and a 9-… mRNA steady state levels after 6 days of treatment whereas addition of 5.10(-5) M R.A. alone for … both the CGRP and the CT mRNA steady …- and 4-fold decreases, respectively).”
“Our results showed that 5.10(-7) M R.A. blunted in part (-30%) the rise of CT and CGRP mRNA induced under Dex; whereas doses > or = 5.10(-6) M maximally decreased both CT and CGRP mRNA (2- and 9-fold decreases, respectively).”
