Targeting the gastrin-releasing peptide receptor pathway to treat cognitive dysfunction associated with Alzheimer's Disease
Abstract Increasing evidence indicates that bombesin (BB)-like peptides (BLPs), such as the gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP) and its receptor (GRPR), might play a role in neurological and psychiatric disorders. The present study reviews findings from animal and human studies suggesting that the GRPR...
