Alpha‐calcitonin gene‐related peptide prevents pressure‐overload induced heart failure: role of apoptosis and oxidative stress

Abstract Alpha‐calcitonin gene‐related peptide (α‐CGRP) is a 37‐amino acid neuropeptide that plays an important protective role in modulating cardiovascular diseases. Deletion of the α‐CGRP gene increases the vulnerability of the heart to pressure‐induced heart failure and the administration of a mo...
