Serum Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptide Concentrations in CADASIL Patients

Overview

About this study

The aim of this investigation is to determine if patients with cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL) have elevated serum concentrations of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) which may be relevant for future therapeutic considerations within this patient population.
