Purpose of Study: Increased presence of calcitonin gene–related peptide (CGRP) has been observed in
patients with chronic tennis elbow. CGRP mediates pain within the dorsal horn of the
spinal cord. The purpose of this study was 1) to examine for CGRP in forelimb flexor
tendons of rats that performed a high repetition–high force (HRHF) or low repetition–low
force (LRLF) reaching and grasping task and 2) to compare CGRP response to the immunoreactivity
(IR) of Substance P and N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor 1 (NMDAr1) observed in this model.
