Calcitonin gene-related peptide and intermedin induce phosphorylation of p44/42 MAPK in primary human lymphatic endothelial cells in vitro.

Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) and adrenomedullin 2/intermedin (AM2/IMD) play important roles in several pathologies, including cardiovascular disease, migraine and cancer. The efficacy of drugs targeting CGRP signalling axis for the treatment of migraine patients is sometimes offset by side effects (e.g.
