摘要 |
The present invention relates to the use of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) in the prevention and alleviation of asthmatic symptoms. In contrast to other therapeutic agents now in use, CGRP combines both bronchoprotector and anti-inflammatory properties. Furthermore, it prevents both early and late phase bronchial responses associated with an asthma attack and its effective dose is small enough that undesirable haemodynamic side effects are not present.
