Roles for substance P and gastrin-releasing peptide as neurotransmitters released by primary afferent pruriceptors.
Recent studies support roles for neurokinin-1 (NK-1) and gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP) receptor-expressing spinal neurons in itch. We presently investigated expression of substance P (SP) and GRP in pruritogen-responsive primary sensory neurons and roles for these neuropeptides in itch signaling. Responses of dorsal root ganglion (DRG) cells to various pruritogens were observed by calcium ima...
متن کاملRoles of glutamate, substance P, and gastrin-releasing peptide as spinal neurotransmitters of histaminergic and nonhistaminergic itch.
We investigated roles for substance P (SP), gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP), and glutamate in the spinal neurotransmission of histamine-dependent and -independent itch. In anesthetized mice, responses of single superficial dorsal horn neurons to intradermal (i.d.) injection of chloroquine were partially reduced by spinal application of the α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole proprionate acid...
متن کاملPreparation and evaluation of 67Ga-DOTA-Bombesin (7-14) as a tumor scintigraphic agent
Introduction: Bombesin is a 14-aminoacid peptide isolated from frog skin. The mammalian counterparts of the frog peptide are neuromedin B (NMB) and gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP). Bombesin (BBN) is a peptide showing high affinity for the gastrin releasing peptide receptor (GRPr). Prostate, small cell lung cancer, breast, gastric, and colon cancers are known to over...
متن کاملItch-associated peptides: RNA-Seq and bioinformatic analysis of natriuretic precursor peptide B and gastrin releasing peptide in dorsal root and trigeminal ganglia, and the spinal cord
BACKGROUND Three neuropeptides, gastrin releasing peptide (GRP), natriuritic precursor peptide B (NPPB), and neuromedin B (NMB) have been proposed to play roles in itch sensation. However, the tissues in which these peptides are expressed and their positions in the itch circuit has recently become the subject of debate. Here we used next-gen RNA-Seq to examine the expression of transcripts codi...

Spontaneous cessation of eating and feeling of fullness before any digestion or absorption of food stuff begins,indicates that G.I. tract sensory nerves or hormone like secretion of upper G.I. tract can causes preabsorptive satiety. Some neurotransmitters or hormonal secretions are assumed to be responsible for this phenomenon, one of them is called bombesin, which mimics neurotransmission acti...
