UVB irradiation increases CGRP expression in the liver of hairless mice.

<p>The level of CGRP mRNA in the liver (A) was measured by real-time PCR and expressed relative to that of β-actin mRNA. The level of CGRP protein in the liver (B) was measured by ELISA. ^#<i>p</i><0.05 or ^##<i>p</i><0.01 indicates values that are significantly different from the UVB (−) group. UVB (−), non-UVB-irradiated mice; UVB (+), UVB-irradiated mice.
