Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) is stored in large dense-core vesicles in the sensory nerve terminals, but after activation of the trigeminovascular system, CGRP molecules (small green objects) can be released at trigeminal nerve (TGN, blue) endings and bind the CGRP receptors present in both TGN and cerebral blood vessels (red).
