Cisplatin-induced emesis: systematic review and meta-analysis of the ferret model and the effects of 5-HT3 receptor antagonists [PDF]
PURPOSE: The ferret cisplatin emesis model has been used for ~30 years and enabled identification of clinically used anti-emetics. We provide an objective assessment of this model including efficacy of 5-HT(3) receptor antagonists to assess its ...

Abstract Background and Purpose Psoriasis is a chronic, relapsing, immune‐mediated inflammatory skin disease. The transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) ion channel plays a protective role in the formation of psoriasiform skin reactions. Here, we investigated the pharmacological activation and blockade of TRPA1 in human skin (patho)physiology ...

Central Mechanism Controlling Pubertal Onset in Mammals: A Triggering Role of Kisspeptin
Pubertal onset is thought to be timed by an increase in pulsatile gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH)/gonadotropin secretion in mammals. The underlying mechanism of pubertal onset in mammals is still an open question.

Spinal neurons that contain gastrin-releasing peptide seldom express Fos or phosphorylate extracellular signal-regulated kinases in response to intradermal chloroquine [PDF]
Background: Gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP) is thought to play a role in the itch evoked by intradermal injection of chloroquine. Although some early studies suggested that GRP was expressed in pruriceptive primary afferents, it is now thought that GRP ...

Low Degree of Overlap Between Kisspeptin, Neurokinin B, and Dynorphin Immunoreactivities in the Infundibular Nucleus of Young Male Human Subjects Challenges the KNDy Neuron Concept. [PDF]
Previous immunohistochemical and in situ hybridization studies of sheep, goats, and rodents indicated that kisspeptin (KP), neurokinin B (NKB), and dynorphin A (DYN) are extensively colocalized in the hypothalamic arcuate nucleus, thus providing a basis ...

Neuropeptide Co-Release with Gaba May Explain Functional Non-Monotonic Uncertainty Responses in Dopamine Neurons [PDF]
Co-release of the inhibitory neurotransmitter GABA and the neuropeptide substance-P (SP) from single axons is a conspicuous feature of the basal ganglia, yet its computational role, if any, has not been resolved.

Neuropeptide co-expression in hypothalamic kisspeptin neurons of laboratory animals and the human
Hypothalamic peptidergic neurons using kisspeptin (KP) and its co-transmitters for communication are critically involved in the regulation of mammalian reproduction and puberty.
