We examined the effects of physalaemin, an agonist of tachykinin receptors, on mechanical responses in the rat esophagus to clarify possible regulatory roles of tachykinins in esophageal motility. Exogenous application of physalaemin caused tonic contractions in rat esophageal segments when

Mammalian tachykinins are traditionally viewed as neuropeptides. This review describes the mammalian tachykinins and evidence for expression of these peptides by non-neuronal cells. Tachykinin expression is defined as evidence for gene transcription, peptide production, or peptide secretion. Since the functions

Protein aggregation and amyloid formation are associated with both pathological conditions in humans such as Alzheimer's disease and native functions such as peptide hormone storage in the pituitary secretory granules in mammals. Here, we studied amyloid fibrils formation by three

The effects of the non-mammalian tachykinin physalaemin were studied on the short circuit current (SCC) and on both influx (Ji) and outflux (Jo) of 36Cl- and 22Na+ across the isolated skin of Rana esculenta. Physalaemin, added to the internal bathing

The most widely used smooth muscle preparations for neurokinin bioassays have been critically analyzed in order to determine whether neurokinins act directly or by the intermediary of other natural agents. Indeed, part of the contraction of the GPI in response
