Substance P Receptor in the Rat Heart and Regulation of Its Expression in Long-Term Diabetes
Substance P (SP) is a neuropeptide engaged in the signal transmission of neural C fibers afferents in the myocardium. The actions of SP in the heart are extensive and they are mediated by the neurokinin 1 receptor (NK1R), a member of the tachykinin ...

The Impact of Aprepitant on Post‐Operative Nausea and Vomiting in Endoscopic Skull Base Surgery
ABSTRACT Objective Post‐operative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is common following endoscopic skull base surgery despite multimodal prophylaxis and carries a risk of post‐operative bleeding and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leakage. This study aims to investigate if pre‐operative administration of the neurokinin‐1 (NK‐1) antagonist, aprepitant, reduces PONV ...

Psoralen (PSN) demonstrates significant dose‐dependent antiemetic activity in a copper sulfate–induced chick emesis model. Integrated in vivo and in silico analyses reveal reduced retching frequency, prolonged latency, and favorable multi‐receptor interactions with D2, 5‐HT3A, and muscarinic receptors, highlighting PSN as a promising multi‐target ...

Background and Purpose The pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM)‐induced cardiomyopathy involves cardiac fibrosis that leads to diastolic dysfunction. We established that replacement of lost substance P (SP) that occurs in T2DM reduces cardiac fibrosis and decreases inflammation in T2DM mice and non‐human primates.

The G protein–coupled receptor (GPCR) superfamily consists of the most common targets of approved drugs. Targeting GPCRs offers appealing avenues for therapeutic development. Antibodies and their fragments, such as single‐domain antibodies (VHHs or nanobodies), have emerged as useful alternatives to small molecule pharmacophores as building blocks in ...
