摘要:
Disclosed is a method of assessing the potential in vivo efficacy of a candidate anti-CGRP antibody or anti-CGRP antibody fragment, anti-CGRP receptor antibody or anti-CGRP receptor antibody fragment, or a polypeptide comprising a fragment of CGRP or CGRP receptor for treating photophobia or light aversion, comprising determining whether the candidate inhibits light aversive behaviour in a nestin/Ramp1 rodent administered CGRP compared to a rodent administered CGRP in the absence of the candidate.
