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 ...

Conformational Rigidity Versus Flexibility in a Novel Peptidic Neurokinin A Receptor Antagonist

, 1995
Neurokinin A receptor antagonists have been proposed as a new class of drugs for several applications in humans (asthama, intestinal motility, etc.). The rational design, synthesis, structural characterization and biological activity evaluation of a new ...

Desensitization of the Neurokinin 1 Receptor Is Mediated by the Receptor Carboxy-Terminal Region, but Is Not Caused by Receptor Internalization [PDF]

, 1996
The carboxy-terminal cytoplasmic regions of the rat neurokinin 1 (substance P) and neurokinin 2 (neurokinin A) receptors have been exchanged to determine if this region of the neurokinin 1 receptor is involved in its desensitization.

Swiss Practice Recommendations for Chronic Prurigo Including Prurigo Nodularis

International Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.
Chronic prurigo, including prurigo nodularis, is a chronic, often treatment‐refractory condition characterized by persistent pruritus and chronic scratch lesions. Advances in the understanding of its underlying pathophysiology have enabled the development of novel targeted therapies; however, management remains challenging due to the expanding range of

Dexamethasone-sparing strategies in anthracycline and cyclophosphamide-based chemotherapy with a focus on 5-HT3 receptor antagonists: a network meta-analysis

Frontiers in Oncology
BackgroundThe effectiveness of a dexamethasone-sparing strategy in the treatment of breast cancer with anthracycline-cyclophosphamide therapy when combined with first-generation 5-HT3 receptor antagonists (RAs) and neurokinin-1 RAs is unclear.

Recent advances in polyendocrine metabolic ovarian syndrome, formerly polycystic ovary syndrome, with emphasis on endocrine and metabolic dysfunction and cardiovascular risk

Journal of Internal Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Polyendocrine metabolic ovarian syndrome (PMOS), previously known as polycystic ovary syndrome, affects 10%–13% of women of reproductive age and remains underdiagnosed despite its substantial health burden. The introduction of the new PMOS nomenclature in 2026 reflects a fundamental shift in understanding the condition as a lifelong endocrine ...

Effect of neurokinin B and dynorphin A on kisspeptin-10 secretion from the anterior pituitary cells of pubescent ewes in vitro

Journal of Veterinary Research
Neurokinin B (NKB), dynorphin A (Dyn A) and kisspeptin (KiSS) are key agents that participate in the neuroendocrine regulation of the development and functioning of the reproductive system.

Neurokinin-1 Receptor Signaling Is Required for Efficient Ca2+ Flux in T-Cell-Receptor-Activated T Cells

Cell Reports, 2020
Summary: Efficient Ca2+ flux induced during cognate T cell activation requires signaling the T cell receptor (TCR) and unidentified G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs).

Inflammatory and Immunological Basis of Periodontal Diseases

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
The periodontal lesion emerges as an evolving immunological battlefield, where host–microbiome interactions, dysregulated immune responses, fragile resolution mechanisms, and inflammophilic dysbiosis converge to shift the balance from homeostasis to unrestrained tissue destruction.

A Neural Circuit Underlying the Generation of Hot Flushes

Cell Reports, 2018
Summary: Hot flushes are a sudden feeling of warmth commonly associated with the decline of gonadal hormones at menopause. Neurons in the arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus that express kisspeptin and neurokinin B (Kiss1ARH neurons) are candidates for ...
