BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Intermedin is a member of the calcitonin gene-related-peptide (CGRP) family expressed in endothelial cells and acts via calcitonin receptor-like receptors (CLRs). Here we have analysed the receptors for intermedin and its effect on the endothelial barrier in monolayers of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs).
