The neurokinin 1 receptor antagonist, ezlopitant, reduces appetitive responding for sucrose and ethanol. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
The current obesity epidemic is thought to be partly driven by over-consumption of sugar-sweetened diets and soft drinks. Loss-of-control over eating and addiction to drugs of abuse share overlapping brain mechanisms including changes in motivational ...

Neurokinin-1 receptor activation in globus pallidus

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2009
The undecapeptide substance P has been demonstrated to modulate neuronal activity in a number of brain regions by acting on neurokinin-1 receptors. Anatomical studies revealed a moderate level of neurokinin-1 receptor in rat globus pallidus. To determine

Effect of montelukast on platelet activating factor- and tachykinin induced mucus secretion in the rat [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Occupational Medicine and Toxicology, 2008
Background Platelet activating factor and tachykinins (substance P, neurokinin A, neurokinin B) are important mediators contributing to increased airway secretion in the context of different types of respiratory diseases including acute and chronic ...

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

Human acute myeloid leukemia cells express Neurokinin-1 receptor, which is involved in the antileukemic effect of Neurokinin-1 receptor antagonists

open access: yesInvestigational New Drugs, 2018
The substance P/neurokinin-1 receptor system has been implicated in tumor cell proliferation. Neurokinin-1 receptor has been identified in different solid tumors but not frequently in hematopoietic malignant cells. We investigated the presence of the Neurokinin-1 receptor in acute myeloid leukemia cell lines (KG-1 and HL-60), demonstrating that acute ...
