Neuromediators for cholestatic pruritus
Cholestatic pruritus is one of the most common complaints in patients with liver diseases and intraor posthepatic cholestasis. The mechanisms of cholestatic pruritus remain poorly understood although multiple factors are considered to participate in the pathogenesis of cholestatic pruritus. Recent exciting studies have discovered several G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) and endogenous chemic...
متن کاملTargeting human Mas-related G protein-coupled receptor X1 to inhibit persistent pain.
Human Mas-related G protein-coupled receptor X1 (MRGPRX1) is a promising target for pain inhibition, mainly because of its restricted expression in nociceptors within the peripheral nervous system. However, constrained by species differences across Mrgprs, drug candidates that activate MRGPRX1 do not activate rodent receptors, leaving no responsive animal model to test the effect on pain in viv...
متن کاملNovel Probes Establish Mas-Related G Protein-Coupled Receptor X1 Variants as Receptors with Loss or Gain of Function.
The Mas-related G protein-coupled receptor X1 (MrgprX1) is a human seven transmembrane-domain protein with a putative role in nociception and pruritus. This receptor is expressed in dorsal root ganglion neurons and is activated by a variety of endogenous peptides, including bovine adrenal medulla peptide (BAM) and γ2-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (γ2-MSH). In the present work, we study how nat...
متن کامل'Out-patient' albumin dialysis for cholestatic patients with intractable pruritus.
BACKGROUND Intractable pruritus is a major problem for some patients with cholestasis. Albumin dialysis has been shown to ameliorate pruritus, but long-term outcome data are limited. AIM To evaluate the safety and efficacy of 'out-patient' albumin dialysis using the molecular adsorbent recirculating system (MARS) in the treatment of intractable pruritus in cholestatic patients referred for li...
متن کاملLysophosphatidic acid is a potential mediator of cholestatic pruritus.
BACKGROUND & AIMS Pruritus is a common and disabling symptom in cholestatic disorders. However, its causes remain unknown. We hypothesized that potential pruritogens accumulate in the circulation of cholestatic patients and activate sensory neurons. METHODS Cytosolic free calcium ([Ca(2+)](i)) was measured in neuronal cell lines by ratiometric fluorometry upon exposure to serum samples from p...
