Substance P binds to and activates the neurokinin-1 receptor with high affinity, thereby modulating several neuronal pathways including pain transmission and neurogenic inflammation. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
We have demonstrated a cross-desensitization between hHK-1 and [Sar9, Met (O2)11] SP substantiating NK1-receptor activation and desensitization by hHK-1. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
In patients with mild to moderate and strong intensity of pain, NK-1R mRNA levels were increased 14- and 30-fold over controls, respectively. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
Tachykinins have been proposed to play an important role in human respiratory diseases such as bronchial asthma und chronic obstructive diseases (COPD) as they have been shown to have potent effects on the tone of airway smooth muscle, airway secretions, bronchial circulation and on inflammatory and immune cells by activation of the neurokinin-1 (NK-1) and neurokinin-2 (NK-2) receptors. | |||||||||||||||

|
Activation of NK-1R could then impact NF-kappaB expression and therefore may be an important participant in the effect of morphine on immune responses in the central nervous system. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
In vitro functional assays are consistent with potent competitive antagonism of substance P-(SP) or neurokinin A-(NKA) induced [3H]-inositol phosphate accumulation in NK-1 or NK-2 monoreceptor cell lines with pA2 values of 8.19 and 8.67, respectively. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
Intrathecal administration of anti-recombinant human galectin-1 antibody (anti-rhGAL-1 Ab) partially but significantly attenuated the upregulation of substance P receptor (SPR) in the spinal dorsal horn and the mechanical hypersensitivity induced by the peripheral nerve injury. | |||||||||||||||

|
Our results indicated that, although cultured HDMEC expressed mRNA for neurokinin receptors 1, 2, and 3 (NK-1R, NK-2R, and NK-3R), SP initiated a rapid increase in HDMEC intracellular Ca2+ levels, primarily by the activation of NK-1R. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
By using activators and inhibitors of protein kinase C (PKC) and NK1-R mutations of potential PKC phosphorylation sites, we determined the role of PKC in desensitization of responses to SP. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
The release of tachykinins and endothelin-3 (ET-3) from trigeminal neurons induces dural vascular permeability and vasodilatation via activation of tachykinin receptor 1 (Tacr1) and endothelin receptor type B (Ednrb) on endothelial cells. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
These results indicated that SP might contribute to the transmission of nociceptive information and induce noxious sensation, at least in part by activating SPR in peripheral terminals of the dorsal root ganglion cells. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
The upregulated NK-1R by morphine had functional activity, because morphine-treated cortical neurons had greater SP-induced Ca(2+) mobilization than untreated neurons. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
We assessed activation of NK1Rs by studying their internalization in spinal cord slices. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
Investigation of the mechanism(s) responsible for the morphine action showed that morphine activated NK-1R promoter and induced the phosphorylation of p38 MAPK protein in the cortical neurons. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
Inflammation in the guinea pig induced by a resiniferatoxin challenge (with NK-1 receptor activation mediating the subsequent increase in vascular permeability) is inhibited in a dose-dependent manner by the oral preadmininstration of 17 (IC50 (1 h) = 0.008 mg/kg; IC90 (24 h) = 1.8 mg/kg), indicating that this compound has good oral bioavailbility and peripheral duration of action. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
NK-1 agonists bind to human NK-1 receptor and activate the production of both inositol phosphates and cyclic AMP. | |||||||||||||||
