Summary: This gene encodes a neuropeptide hormone that affects various biological processes such as neuroendocrine regulation, gastrointestinal secretion, nociception, cell proliferation and inflammation. The encoded protein undergoes proteolytic processing to generate multiple mature peptides with biological activity. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2015]

These results establish a spinal gating mechanism for itch that requires sustained repetitive activity of presynaptic GRP neurons and postsynaptic GRP signaling to drive GRPR neuron output
Title: How Gastrin-Releasing Peptide Opens the Spinal Gate for Itch.
Study shows that itch deficits in mice lacking NMB or GRP are non-redundant and Nmb/Grp double KO (DKO) mice displayed additive deficits. Furthermore, both Nmb/Grp and Nmbr/Grpr DKO mice responded normally to a wide array of noxious stimuli. NMB and GRP may transmit discrete itch information and NMBR neurons are an integral part of neural circuits for itch in the spinal cord.

Study finds that the combinatorial expression of gastrin releasing peptide and Neurod6 defines midbrain dopaminergic subpopulations with unique features.

These data suggest that GRPR expression in fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLS)and that exogenous GRP are able to activate FLS invasion. This effect occurs at least in part through the AKT activation. Therefore, understanding of the GRP/GRPR pathway could be relevant in the development of FLS-targeted therapy for Rheumatoid arthritis .

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
