The tachykinin hemokinin-1 (HK-1) is involved in immunological processes, inflammation, and pain. Although the neurokinin 1 receptor (NK1R) is described as its main target, several effects are mediated by currently unidentified receptor(s).

The Enteric Nervous System: An Integrative Hub From Development to Systemic Physiology
Unlike a static hardwired circuit, the ENS continuously remodels its transcriptional programs and synaptic connectivity in response to three ecological forces: microbial metabolites, immune cell signals and enteroendocrine cues. ABSTRACT The enteric nervous system (ENS) constitutes the largest and most functionally autonomous subdivision of the ...

Background G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) represent a family of well-characterized drug targets with significant therapeutic value. Phylogenetic classifications may help to understand the characteristics of individual GPCRs and their subtypes ...

Neurosecretory cells of the brain are mostly the same in larvae and adults of Drosophila melanogaster and they produce the same neuropeptides and peptide hormones (NPHs), yet their functional roles differ to a large extent between the two stages. Many other peptidergic neurons change both in numbers and function.

Tachykinin receptors (version 2019.4) in the IUPHAR/BPS Guide to Pharmacology Database [PDF]
Tachykinin receptors (provisional nomenclature as recommended by NC-IUPHAR [90]) are activated by the endogenous peptides substance P (SP), neurokinin A (NKA; previously known as substance K, neurokinin α, neuromedin L), neurokinin B (NKB ...

Abstract Although small intestinal neuroendocrine tumours (SI‐NET) Grade 1 (G1) and 2 (G2) are often studied together, clinical course and response to treatment may differ. We hypothesized that these tumour groups express different markers in blood that may inform future treatment strategies. Blood from 107 SI‐NET patients (G1 n = 64, G2 n = 43) and 50

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

Neuropeptides are diverse and evolutionarily ancient regulators of physiological/behavioural processes in animals. Here we have investigated the evolution and comparative physiology of luqin-type neuropeptide signalling, which has been characterised ...
