Agonist Comments
Reference [29] uses the rat calcitonin receptor-like receptor but mouse RAMP1.
Reference [12] uses the rat calcitonin receptor-like receptor but human RAMP1.

[Cys(ACM)2,7]-CGRP and [Cys(Et)2,7]-CGRP were introduced as selective CGRP2 agonists. This receptor phenotype is now considered to be a mixture of AM and AMY receptors [21]. [Cys(ACM)2,7]-CGRP is a partial agonist and the efficacy of [Cys(Et)2,7]-CGRP is very system dependent at CGRP and AMY receptors [6,22,44]. It is therefore recommended that these peptides are used with caution.

Antagonist Comments
BIBN4096BS (and MK-0974) shows at least an order of magnitude selectivity for primate over non-primate receptors. The pharmacology of these compounds have recently been reviewed [42]. This affinity is conferred by a tryptophan at position 74 of human RAMP1 [35]. A variety of other non-peptide antagonists have been described, but their pharmacology has not been widely explored [35]. In functional assays the pA2 for CGRP 8-37 shows a wide spread of values from around 7 to nearly 9, depending on the system being analysed [19,24]. Thus it is difficult to use it to classify receptors.

Note: CGRP receptor distribution can only be mapped reliably with [125I]-CGRP, as the calcitonin receptor-like receptor and the RAMPs form components of other receptors. Even radioligand binding is not without its problems as iodinated CGRP has appreciable affinity for amylin receptors.
