The long use of ephedrine, amphetamines, cocaine, LSD and more recently 3,4-methylenedioxy-N-methylamphetamine (MDMA; "Ecstasy") allows us to predict with some confidence what cardiovascular risks are likely to be associated with novel psychoactive s

KCNQ4-encoded voltage-dependent potassium (Kv7.4) channels are important regulators of vascular tone that are severely compromised in models of hypertension. However, there is no information as to the role of these channels in responses to endogenous

KCNQ gene expression was previously shown in various rodent blood vessels, where the products of KCNQ4 and KCNQ5, Kv7.4 and Kv7.5 potassium channel subunits, respectively, have an influence on vascular reactivity. The aim of this study was to determi

Proteinase-activated receptors (PARs) are G-protein-coupled receptors that convert specific extracellular proteolytic activity into intracellular signals, and have been suggested to play diverse roles in the body. In this review, evidence for the rol

Protective roles for protease-activated receptor-2 (PAR(2)) in the airways including activation of epithelial chloride (Cl(-)) secretion are based on the use of presumably PAR(2)-selective peptide agonists. To determine whether PAR(2) peptide-activat

1 The effect of adenosine on transepithelial ion transport was investigated in isolated preparations of murine trachea mounted in Ussing chambers. The possible regulation of adenosine receptors in an established model of allergic airway inflammation

Active thrombin is found in the airways of patients with a variety of inflammatory lung diseases. However, whether thrombin contributes to the pathologies of these diseases is unknown, although thrombin is a potent inflammatory mediator in other orga

Proteinase-activated receptors (PARs) are novel G-protein-coupled receptors activated by serine and other proteinases to induce changes in cellular function. There is extensive evidence that PARs are expressed in the airways in a variety of cell type

The 5-HT receptor subtype that mediates bronchocontraction and the involvement of neuronal and non-neuronal acetylcholine was assessed in murine isolated tracheae. Atropine (1–10 nM) caused a rightward shift of the methacholine concentration–effe

Protease-activated receptor (PAR)-mediated vascular relaxations have been compared in coronary arteries of different diameters isolated from both humans and pigs. Thrombin, trypsin, and the PAR1-activating peptide, TFLLR, all caused concentration-dep
