The mechanisms of action of tachykinin peptides thought to be involved in central
cardiovascular regulation were examined. Intracerebroventricular injections (icv) of …

The regional distributions of neurokinin B-like immunoreactivity and substance P-like
immunoreactivity in the central nervous system in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs) …

In this study, we investigated the cardiovascular effects of four tachykinins in the
anaesthetized toad, Bufo marinus. The potencies were compared of the amphibian peptides …

Rat/mouse hemokinin-1 is a mammalian tachykinin peptide whose biological functions have
not been well characterized. In the present study, an attempt has been made to investigate …

The pharmacological characterization of the tachykinin receptors involved in spinal and
supraspinal cardiovascular regulation is reviewed in this report. In conscious rats, substance …

Abstract Intracerebroventricular administration of bradykinin (1, 5 and 20 μg) into conscious
rats resulted in significant dose-dependent increases in the plasma vasopressin …

It has been established for several years that, in addition to the classic neurotransmitters,
peptides are used as chemical messengers between neuronal elements. Angiotensin and …

The central pressor actions of the tachykinin NK-3 receptor in the paraventricular nucleus
(PVN) of the hypothalamus were examined in anesthetized rats. In forebrain-restricted …

Intravenous injection of 3–33 nmol/kg of substance P (SP) caused pressor and tachycardic
responses in anesthetized rats. The responses were not blocked by a ganglion nicotinic …

The present study evaluated the sensitivity of spontaneously hypertensive (SHR) and of
Wistar Kyoto (WKY) rats to the hypotensive effect of tachykinins (TKs). Eledoisin, substance …
