Abstract

Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) was found to potently inhibit a substance P endopeptidase isolated from human CSF. CGRP potentiated substance P irritant actions; a possible mechanism is interaction for a common metabolic step. Somatostatin is another peptide capable of competing with substance P endopeptidase.
