1 Capsaicin (20mg/kg) was given to the animals to induce up-regulation of the CGRP. Capsaicin calcitonin-related polypeptide alpha Rattus norvegicus
2 The pre-treatment with capsaicin effectively up-regulated CGRP and its encoding mRNA and attenuated the cell apoptosis and caspase-3 activity in the retina. Capsaicin calcitonin-related polypeptide alpha Rattus norvegicus
3 Capsaicin may attenuate the apoptosis of the retina cells at early times of diabetes, via up-regulation of CGRP. Capsaicin calcitonin-related polypeptide alpha Rattus norvegicus
