Substance P regulates Ih via a NK-1 receptor in vagal sensory neurons of the ferret.
Substance P (SP) hyperpolarizes approximately 80% of ferret vagal sensory neurons (nodose ganglion neurons) via NK-1 receptor-mediated activation of a potassium current (IK). A depolarizing current activated by membrane hyperpolarization could minimize the SP-induced hyperpolarization. Such a current exists in 65% of the nodose neurons (n = 264). In this study, we examine this current and how i...
متن کاملOpioid modulation of ferret vagal afferent mechanosensitivity.
Despite universal use of opioids in the clinic to inhibit pain, there is relatively little known of their peripheral actions on sensory nerve endings, where in fact they may be better targeted with more widespread applications. Here we show differential effects of mu-, kappa-, and delta-opioids on mechanosensitive ferret esophageal vagal afferent endings investigated in vitro. The effects of se...
متن کاملFerret tracheal mucus rheology, clearability and volume following administration of substance P or methacholine.
We studied the effects of substances P administration on tracheal mucus viscoelasticity, water content, clearability and secretion rate. Six neutered adult male ferrets (weight 1.1-1.5 kg) were studied, on four occasions each. They were anaesthetized with ketamine and xylazine, and intubated shallowly. Control mucus (pre- and post-Ringer instillation) was compared with the mucus obtained follow...

متن کاملInterleukin-1beta-induced airway hyperresponsiveness enhances substance P in intrinsic neurons of ferret airway.
Interleukin (IL)-1beta causes airway inflammation, enhances airway smooth muscle responsiveness, and alters neurotransmitter expression in sensory, sympathetic, and myenteric neurons. This study examines the role of intrinsic airway neurons in airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR) induced by IL-1beta. Ferrets were instilled intratracheally with IL-1beta (0.3 microg/0.3 ml) or saline (0.3 ml) once da...
