Background—Although pharmacological studies suggest that the transient receptor potential
vanilloid type 1 (TRPV1) channels expressed in sensory nerve fibers innervating the heart …

抄録 Substance P and neurokinin A are tachykinins that are co-localized with calcitonin
gene-related peptide (CGRP) in a unique subpopulation of cardiac afferent nerve fibers …

The tachykinin family of vasoactive peptides comprises the neuropeptides substance P,
neurokinin A and neurokinin B, and the newly discovered endokinins and hemokinins. Their …

OBJECTIVE: This study evaluated serum levels of the neuropeptides calcitonin gene-related
peptide (CGRP) and substance P (SP) in coronary artery disease (CAD) patients with and …

Forty-one patients (37 female and four male) with signs and symptoms of
temporomandibular joint arthritis, were separated into two diagnostic groups (group I …

Previous studies have shown that rutaecarpine has depressor and vasodilator effects, and
activates vanilloid receptors to evoke calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) release. In the …

Objectives: Ischemia of the myocardium stimulates cardiac sensory nerve endings resulting
in the local release of neuropeptides. The significance of the release of neuropeptides, such …

In addition to traditional neurotransmitters of the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous
systems, the heart also contains numerous neuropeptides. These neuropeptides not only …

To determine whether intrinsic cardiac neurons involved in cardiac regulation possess
neurokinin (NK) receptor subtypes, we administered selective NK receptor agonists …

Previous investigations have suggested that vasodilator responses to nitroglycerin involve in
stimulation of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) release. Therefore, we tested whether …
