CGRP inhibits proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells stimulated by Endothelin / 中国药理学通报

ABSTRACT

By means of 3H-Thymidine and3H-Leucine incorporation, we observed that CGRP inhibited the multiplication of SHR's aortic smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) and the proliferation of VSMCs stimulated by Endothelin. These results suggest that CGRP may be a natu-ral antagonist of Endothelin in human body.
