Protease-activated receptor-2 (PAR2), primarily involved in inflammation, is highly expressed in limbic regions of the brain such as the hippocampus. Although extracellular proteolysis is involved in normal and stress-related neuronal plasticity asso

Serine proteases such as tissue plasminogen activator (tPA), thrombin and neuropsin influence hippocampal plasticity involved in learning and memory by facilitating both synaptic remodelling and long-term potentiation. Given our previous findings tha

The roles of kinin and protease-activated receptors (PAR) in endothelium-dependent relaxations to the serine protease, trypsin, were examined in rings of bovine left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD). Trypsin (0.01–30 U/ml) caused biphasic,

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

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

Mechanisms of relaxation and contraction to protease-activated receptor- (PAR) tethered ligand peptides (SFLLRN/TFLLR, SLIGRL and GYPGKF (all C-terminally amidated) for PAR1, PAR2 and PAR4, respectively) and enzymes (thrombin and trypsin) were invest

1. Mechanisms of protease-activated receptor-1 (PAR1)- and PAR2-induced relaxation were investigated in pre-contracted porcine coronary artery ring preparations. 2. Thrombin (0.01 - 0.3 u ml(-1)) and the PAR1-activating peptide SFLLRN (0.1 - 10 micro

Ryanodine-sensitive, Ca2+ release (‘Ca2+ sparks’) from the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) can activate plasmalemmal Ca2+-activated K+ channels (KCa) to cause membrane hyperpolarization and smooth muscle relaxation. Since cyclic guanosine monophospha
