Levels of neurokinin A, neurokinin B and substance P in rabbit iris sphincter muscle.
We investigated the contents of neurokinin A, neurokinin B and substance P in the rabbit iris sphincter muscle, combining HPLC and radioimmunoassay, as our previous reports indicated that a slow component of neurogenic contractions of this muscle is most probably mediated by such tachykinins. The concentrations of these tachykinins were 44.3 +/- 8.7 fmol/mg protein, 35.3 +/- 10.2 fmol/mg protei...
متن کاملDifferential regulation of smooth muscle contraction in rabbit internal anal sphincter by substance P and bombesin.
Substance P and bombesin induce contraction of isolated IAS smooth muscle cells by different intracellular mechanisms. The cells contracted in a dose dependent manner to both peptides. The kinetics of contraction were different. Substance P induced contraction peaked at 30 seconds and declined in a time dependent manner while bombesin induced contraction peaked at 30 seconds and was maintained ...
متن کاملSubstance P-immunoreactive nerves in the human cornea and iris.
Human corneas and irides obtained from corneal surgery or sector iridectomies were processed according to the indirect immunofluorescence technique for the demonstration of substance P (SP) immunofluorescence by means of a monoclonal SP antibody. SP immunofluorescence was observed in varicose fibers of the corneal epithelium and nerve trunks in the corneal stroma. SP-immunoreactive nerve fibers...
متن کاملDifferent responsiveness to nitric oxide-cyclic guanosine monophosphate pathway in cholinergic and tachykinergic contractions of the rabbit iris sphincter muscle.
PURPOSE In the rabbit iris sphincter muscle, sodium nitroprusside (SNP), a nitric oxide (NO) donor, inhibits cholinergic contraction but does not affect tachykinergic contraction in vitro. The objectives of the current study were to clarify the mechanism for the different responsiveness to NO in cholinergic and tachykinergic muscular contractions, and to examine whether the mechanism for NO-ind...
متن کاملOpiate analogs, substance P, and baroreceptor reflexes in the rabbit.
The putative transmitters, enkephalins and substance P, and their binding sites have been identified in the nucleus of the solitary tract. Their role in the modulation of baroreceptor reflex activity is the subject of this study in the rabbit. A stable decarboxy analog of leu-enkephalin, RX 783016, which has mu receptor specificity, was used to attenuate the baroreflex sensitivity to intravenou...
