Background: Aminopeptidases activate bradykinin and degrade many inflammatory peptides. Objective: The objective of this study was to identify the types of aminopeptidase activities in human nasal mucosa. Methods: Human nasal mucosa was homogenized (

Neutral endopeptidase (E.C.3.4.24.11, enkephalinase, NEP) is a potentially important enzyme capable of regulating the activity of neuropeptides released in the respiratory mucosa. In order to confirm the existence of NEP in the human respiratory muco

To examine the localization of histamine H 1 receptors (H 1 R) in human nasal mucosa, the autoradiographic distribution of H 1 R was studied in human nasal inferior turbinates. Cryostat sections were incubated with various concentration of [ 3 H]pyri

The role of neuropeptides in the regulation of macromolecule secretion from human nasal mucosa is incompletely understood. Previous in vitro explant culture studies have demonstrated the effects of neuropeptides on lactoferrin release from serous cel

Neuropeptide Y (NPY), a potent vasoconstrictor peptide found in sympathetic neurons, was analyzed in human inferior turbinate nasal mucosal tissue. NPY content determined by radioimmunoassay was 3.13 +/- 0.79 pmol/g tissue (n = 6) in mucosa extracted

Bradykinin (BK) and lysyl-BK (lys-BK, kallidin) have been proposed as potentially important mediators of rhinorrhea. Possible mechanisms by which BK might contribute to rhinorrhea were investigated by several approaches. (1) The autoradiographic dist

Carboxypeptidases (CPs), such as carboxypeptidase N (CPN) (kininase I, E.C.3.4.17.3), may regulate peptide-mediated vasodilation and vascular permeability in respiratory mucosa by degrading proinflammatory peptides such as bradykinin, anaphylatoxins,

Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE; EC 3.4.15.1) may participate in respiratory inflammatory diseases by regulating levels of inflammatory peptides such as bradykinin. The presence of ACE in the human nasal mucosa and in nasal secretions was determin

Muscarinic receptors play important roles in the regulation of glandular secretion and vasomotor tone in human nasal mucosa. M1, M2, and M3 muscarinic receptor subtypes were pharmacologically characterized in human inferior turbinates by receptor-bin

Mucus glycoproteins (MGP) are high-molecular-weight glycoconjugates that are released from submucosal glands and epithelial goblet cells in the respiratory tract. Muscarinic receptors have an important role in the regulation of human nasal glandular
