High impact information on Tacr2

  • Results: Cholera toxin-induced water and electrolyte secretion was inhibited by the substance P antagonists and the NK-1 and NK-2 receptor antagonists, but not by the NK-3 receptor antagonist or by pretreatment with capsaicin [7].
  • Thus, C-terminal truncation allows the NK-2 receptor to signal sustained MAP kinase activation, cell growth and transformation by a Ras- and PKC-independent mechanism [8].
  • This conclusion was more directly confirmed by an additional chimeric formation in which the introduction of the above middle portion of SPR into the corresponding region of SKR conferred a high affinity binding to substance P [9].
  • NK1-R was detected in myenteric and submucosal neurons and in interstitial cells of Cajal. NK2-R was localized to circular and longitudinal muscle cells and to nerve endings in the plexuses [10].
  • In naive animals the prolonged VRP evoked following single shock C-fiber stimulation was significantly antagonized by the NMDA receptor antagonist D-AP5 and the NK2 receptor antagonist MEN, 10376 but not by the NK1 receptor antagonists CP-96,345 or RP,67580 [11].

Associations of Tacr2 with chemical compounds

  • Uterine NK2R mRNA levels were not altered by any steroid treatment [18].
  • OBJECTIVES: Present experiments were undertaken to study the influence of peptide NK-1 and NK-2 receptor agonists and antagonists as well as substance P and neurokinin A (the natural ligands for these tachykinin receptors) on vasopressin (AVP) secretion from the rat hypothalamo-neurohypophysial (HN) system in vitro [19].
  • We have now compared in F344 and BDE rats the airway effects of the tachykinins SP and NKA with those of specific NK1 and NK2 receptor agonists and have studied the effect of potent and specific nonpeptide NK1 and NK2 receptor antagonists on NKA-induced airway effects [20].
  • Doxantrazole (5 mg/kg intraperitoneally (i.p.)), a mast cell stabilizer, and SR 140333 (1 mg/kg i.p.) and MEN 11420 (0.1 mg/kg intravenously), respectively NK1 and NK2 receptor antagonists, were administered before GD [21].
  • 4. These results suggest that the induction, but not the maintenance, of cutaneous mechanical allodynia in flexor motoneurones is NK receptor dependent, with cutaneous C fibre conditioning inputs acting via NK1 and muscle C fibre conditioning inputs via NK2 receptor subtypes [22].
