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

Cellular and Molecular Gastroenterology and Hepatology, 2018 Background & Aims: Tachykinins are involved in physiological and pathophysiological mechanisms in the gastrointestinal tract. The major sources of tachykinins in the gut are intrinsic enteric neurons in the enteric nervous system and extrinsic nerve ...

Tachykinins stimulate a subset of mouse taste cells. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 The tachykinins substance P (SP) and neurokinin A (NKA) are present in nociceptive sensory fibers expressing transient receptor potential cation channel, subfamily V, member 1 (TRPV1).

Substance P and NK-1R in Dengue: A First Serological Investigation. [PDF]
Health Sci RepABSTRACT Background Dengue fever lacks reliable biomarkers to explain its complex pathophysiology. Substance P (SP) and its receptor, the Neurokinin‐1 receptor (NK1R), known regulators of inflammation and vascular permeability in viral infections, may play a role in dengue but remain unexplored. Aim/Objective To investigate the levels of SP and NK1R in

The Enteric Nervous System: An Integrative Hub From Development to Systemic Physiology. [PDF]
J Exp Zool A Ecol Integr PhysiolUnlike 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 ...

Age-Related Decreases in Colonic Neurokinin A Content and Release Monitored Using Electrochemical Immunosensors. [PDF]
Neurogastroenterol MotilA 3D‐printed electrochemical immunosensor revealed significant age‐related reductions in colonic Neurokinin A (NKA) content and release. Decreased fecal NKA levels mirrored tissue changes, highlighting the potential of NKA as a noninvasive biomarker of age‐related bowel dysfunction.

Ovarian steroids regulate tachykinin and tachykinin receptor gene expression in the mouse uterus
Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2009 Background In the mouse uterus, pregnancy is accompanied by changes in tachykinin and tachykinin receptor gene expression and in the uterotonic effects of endogenous tachykinins. In this study we have investigated whether changes in tachykinin expression
