The effect of the tachykinin NK2 receptor antagonist MEN11420 (nepadutant) on neurokinin A-induced bronchoconstriction in asthmatics

open access: yesTherapeutic Advances in Respiratory Disease, 2009
Objective: We previously reported that the nonpeptide tachykinin NK 2 receptor antagonist SR48968 (saredutant) significantly inhibits neurokinin A-induced bronchoconstriction in patients with asthma. MEN11420 (nepadutant) is a bicyclic peptide tachykinin

A novel model of IgE-mediated passive pulmonary anaphylaxis in rats. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Mast cells are central effector cells in allergic asthma and are augmented in the airways of asthma patients. Attenuating mast cell degranulation and with it the early asthmatic response is an important intervention point to inhibit bronchoconstriction ...

Characterisation of the novel quinoline RCD405: Relaxant effects on cholinergic and histaminergic tone in human bronchi and small airways

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 182, Issue 17, Page 4122-4133, September 2025.
Abstract Background and Purpose Increased contractility of human airway smooth muscle (hASM) is a hallmark of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Developing new classes of bronchodilators has proved to be challenging because of efficacy and safety concerns.

Drug‐induced respiratory depression in FDA Adverse Event Reporting System for 20 years

open access: yesHong Kong Journal of Emergency Medicine, Volume 32, Issue 4, August 2025.
Abstract Background Drug‐induced respiratory depression (DIRD) is a common and highly prevalent condition in clinical practice, necessitating early prevention and intervention. This study aimed to identify the association between specific medications and DIRD, providing evidence‐based insights for clinical risk assessment and management.

Verapamil Induces Calcium Influx in the Trachea

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2008
Verapamil, a Ca2+entry blocker, can induce bronchorelaxation and bronchoconstriction. The mechanism of verapamil-induced bronchoconstriction is poorly understood.

Breathing and balance: Clinical insights and management strategies of respiratory acid‐base disorders

open access: yesNutrition in Clinical Practice, Volume 40, Issue 4, Page 774-792, August 2025.
Abstract Respiratory acidosis and alkalosis are two of the four main acid‐base processes encountered in clinical practice. These two processes are tightly balanced by breathing. Identification and management of respiratory acid‐base disorders are important for clinicians, particularly when caring for patients with underlying pulmonary and neurological ...

Effects of Muscarinic Receptor Antagonists With or Without M2 Antagonist Activity on Cholinergic Reflex Bronchoconstriction in Ovalbumin-Sensitized and -Challenged Mice

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2003
To investigate whether the inhibition of muscarinic M2 receptors results in the enhancement of reflex bronchoconstriction under airway hyperresponsiveness, we evaluated the effects of muscarinic antagonists with or without M2 antagonist activity on ...
