Bradykinin and adenosine receptors mediate desflurane induced postconditioning in human myocardium: role of reactive oxygen species

BMC Anesthesiology, 2010
Background Desflurane during early reperfusion has been shown to postcondition human myocardium, in vitro. We investigated the role of adenosine and bradykinin receptors, and generation of radical oxygen species in desflurane-induced postconditioning in ...

Serping1 associated with α-synuclein increase in colonic smooth muscles of MPTP-induced Parkinson’s disease mice

Scientific Reports
Patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD) have gastrointestinal motility disorders, which are common non-motor symptoms. However, the reasons for these motility disorders remain unclear. Increased alpha-synuclein (α-syn) is considered an important factor in

Airway Intervention in Paediatric Angioedema: A National Analysis of Clinical Predictors and Outcomes

Clinical Otolaryngology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To characterize paediatric hospitalizations for angioedema and identify the prevalence and outcomes of airway interventions using a large national database. Methods We performed a cross‐sectional analysis of the Kids' Inpatient Database (2003–2019), including paediatric patients (0–20 years) hospitalized with angioedema identified by

Combination of β Adrenergic Receptor Block and Renin–Angiotensin System Inhibition Diminished the Angiotensin II-Induced Vasoconstriction and Increased Bradykinin-Induced Vasodilation in Hypertension

Dose-Response, 2017
In hypertension, the combination therapy is frequently used to obtain a better therapeutic effect and reduce adverse effects. One effective combination is with inhibitors and β-blockers of renin–angiotensin system.

Alu insertion/deletion of ACE gene polymorphism might not affect significantly the serum bradykinin level in hypertensive patients taking ACE inhibitors

Egyptian Journal of Medical Human Genetics, 2017
Background: Angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) has two homologous catalytic domains, the N- and C-domains. Our previous study suggested that Alu insertion (I allele) in the intron 16 of ACE resulted in premature codon termination.

Systemic role of orexin A, substance P, bradykinin, and DABK in severe COVID-19 and 2.5-yr follow-ups: an observational study

BJA Open
Background: Orexin A regulates sleep–wake cycles, arousal, and energy homeostasis, linking it to the renin–angiotensin system and substance P. Dysfunction in these pathways occurs in acute and long-term COVID-19, including post-COVID syndrome.

The Role of Neuropeptide Y in Dental Pulp: Balancing Neurogenic Inflammation and Pain Modulation

International Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Dental pulp is a densely innervated, low‐compliance tissue in which neurogenic inflammation can rapidly escalate into oedema, raised intrapulpal pressure, microvascular compromise, and pain. While Substance P (SP) and Calcitonin gene‐related peptide (CGRP) are well‐established drivers of pulp vasodilation, the Neuroopeptide Y (NPY ...

Analgesic effects of platelet‐rich fibrin (PRF): A systematic review

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Platelet‐rich fibrin (PRF), a second‐generation autologous platelet concentrate, has gained significant interest for its anti‐inflammatory and regenerative characteristics. While its role in tissue healing is well‐recognized, the analgesic potential of PRF remains under‐investigated.
