Gastrin Releasing Peptide (GRP)
Overview
Gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP) is a neuropeptide that functions as a regulatory molecule in numerous physiological and pathophysiological processes. Named for its ability to stimulate gastrin release from G cells in the stomach, GRP also acts as a neurotransmitter and growth factor in both the central and peripheral nervous systems. Its receptor, the gastrin-releasing peptide receptor (GRPR), is aberrantly overexpressed in several cancer types, making GRP a significant target in oncology research.
