Substance P Receptor in the Rat Heart and Regulation of Its Expression in Long-Term Diabetes

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2018
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

open access: yesLaryngoscope Investigative Otolaryngology, Volume 11, Issue 4, August 2026.
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 ...

In Vivo Evaluation of Psoralen in a Copper Sulfate–Induced Chick (Gallus gallus domesticus) Emesis Model and In Silico Analysis of Its Interaction With D2, 5‐HT3A, and Muscarinic Receptors

open access: yesChemistryOpen, Volume 15, Issue 8, August 2026.
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 ...

Evaluation of Potential Hormonal Activities of Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera)

open access: yesPhytotherapy Research, Volume 40, Issue 8, Page 4880-4897, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Ashwagandha is a widely used herb in traditional medicine systems, particularly Ayurveda. Despite its extensive tradition, growing concerns regarding its potential endocrinological effects have prompted scientific scrutiny. This review systematically evaluates the current preclinical, clinical, and case study evidence concerning AS's effects ...

Neurokinin 1 receptor mediates membrane blebbing and sheer stress-induced microparticle formation in HEK293 cells.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Cell-derived microparticles participate in intercellular communication similar to the classical messenger systems of small and macro-molecules that bind to specialized membrane receptors. Microparticles have been implicated in the regulation of a variety

Comorbidity Patterns Between Hearing Loss and Symptomatic Dizziness in Middle‐Aged and Older Adults

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, Volume 12, Issue 4, Page 389-400, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective To explore the comorbidity patterns between hearing loss and symptomatic dizziness (HL‐SD) in middle‐aged and older adults. Methods This cross‐sectional study used data from the 1999 to 2004 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). After excluding incomplete data, 2961 participants aged 40–69 were analyzed. Logistic

Neurokinin‐1 receptor activation protects against cardiac fibrosis, inflammation and diastolic dysfunction in type 2 diabetic mice

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 15, Page 4246-4266, August 2026.
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.

Multivalent antibody‐based conjugates as new tools for tailored modulation of G protein–coupled receptors

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 16, Page 4512-4531, August 2026.
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 ...
