GV01 is one of the most effective acupoints to treat diarrhea in humans and animals. The present study showed that skin on the GV01 acupoint reveals tenderness and neurogenic inflammation in colonic inflammatory states, but not in normal healthy states.
OBJECTIVE
Lanepitant selectively blocks substance P binding to the neurokinin-1 receptor, preventing neurogenic inflammation and pain transmission. Substance P is present in synovial fluid and in excess in cerebral spinal fluid. We investigated the effect of lanepitant on pain caused by
Neuropeptide Y (NPY), a 36-amino acid peptide, is widely expressed in the central and peripheral nervous system. NPY is involved in the regulation of several physiological processes, including energy balance, food intake, and nociception. Recently, we showed that activation of the NPY Y1 receptor is
The possibility of links between psychosocial factors and cancer incidence and progression has generated considerable scientific and public interest. Tachykinins, including substance P, neurokinin A and B, hemokinin-1 and endokinins, are a family of neuropeptides, acting through three types of
Crohn's disease is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the gastrointestinal tract associated with abdominal pain and diarrhea. Pain caused by Crohn's disease likely involves neurogenic inflammation which seems to involve the ion channel transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 (TRPA1).
