Neurotensin (NT) is a neuropeptide with antinociceptive effects that are mediated through NT receptors, of which there are three known subtypes (NTS1, NTS2, and NTS3). Morphine is a mu-opioid receptor agonist commonly used for pain treatment but is associated with
Central neurotensin (NT) administration results in a naloxone-insensitive antinociceptive response in animal models of acute and persistent pain. Both NTS1 and NTS2 receptors were shown to be required for different aspects of NT-induced analgesia. We recently demonstrated that NTS2 receptors

This comparative and randomised pilot study assessed the clinical and biological efficacy of Naaxia Sine(R) eye-drops versus levocabastine eye-drops in the treatment of vernal keratoconjunctivitis (VKC). Twenty-three VKC patients were randomised and treated bilaterally for 28 days with N-acetyl-aspartyl-glutamate (NAAGA)
Levocabastine is an antiallergic drug acting as a histamine H1-receptor antagonist. In allergic conjunctivitis (AC), it may also antagonize up-regulation of the intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) expressed on epithelial conjunctival cells. However, little is known about its effects on eosinophils
Neurotensin (NT) analogs, NT69L, NT72, and NT79, differentially bind the two major neurotensin receptors, NTS1 and NTS2, to elicit effects similar to those of endogenous NT, including analgesia. Previous data strongly suggest NTS2 as the main receptor involved in NT-
