The aim of this study was to analyze the function and expression of tachykinins, tachykinin receptors, and neprilysin (NEP) in the mouse uterus. A previous study showed that the uterotonic effects of substance P (SP), neurokinin A (NKA), and neurokin

Muscarinic receptors mediating contraction of bladder detrusor muscle from female mice were examined. Mice were untreated (A) or treated with oestradiol cypionate (200 microg/kg) 24 h (B) or 96 h (C) before experimentation, or were pregnant (day 17)

The peptides of the tachykinin family are widely distributed within the mammalian peripheral and central nervous systems and play a well-recognized role as excitatory neurotransmitters. Currently, the concept that tachykinins act exclusively as neuro

Tachykinins may be involved in reproduction. A reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction assay was used to analyze the expression of tachykinins and tachykinin receptors in different types of reproductive cells from mice. The preprotachykinin (

Studies were undertaken to determine the nature of the receptors mediating contractile effects of tachykinins in the uteri of nonpregnant women, and to analyse the expression of preprotachykinins (PPT), tachykinin receptors and the cell-surface pepti

Contractility studies were undertaken to determine the nature of the receptors mediating responses to tachykinins in uteri of oestrogen-treated mice. In the presence of thiorphan, (3 μM), captopril (10 μM) and bestatin (10 μM), substance P (SP), n

SUMMARY 1. The present review describes the actions of sensory neuropeptides on the contractility of the rat and guinea-pig prostate gland and discusses the differences in sensitivity of the smooth muscle of the prostates taken from these species to

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of adenine nucleosides and nucleotides on contractility of the smooth muscle of rat prostate gland. Nerve terminals within rat isolated prostatic tissues were electrically field stimulated (60 V, 0

1. We review literature demonstrating (a) the presence and (b) the actions of substances that mediate or modify neuroeffector transmission to the smooth muscle of the prostrate stroma of a number of species including man. 2. In all species studied pr
