Altered cardiovascular responses in mice lacking the M(1) muscarinic acetylcholine receptor.

Although the M(2) muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (mAChR) is the predominant functional mAChR subtype in the heart, some responses of the cardiovascular system to acetylcholine (ACh) may be mediated by other mAChR subtypes. The potential effect of M(1) mAChR on heart function was investigated using M(1) knockout (M(1)-KO) mice. In vivo cardiodynamic analysis showed that basal values of heart rate (HR), developed left ventricular pressure (DLVP), left ventricular dP/dt(max) (LV dP/dt(max)), and mean blood pressure (MBP) were similar between wild-type (WT) and M(1)-KO mice. Injection of the pu

The emetic and anti-emetic effects of the capsaicin analogue resiniferatoxin in Suncus murinus, the house musk shrew.

1. In SUNCUS: murinus the ultrapotent capsaicin analogue resiniferatoxin (RTX) induced an emetic response in the dose range 1 - 1000 microg kg(-1), s.c. The latency was inversely related to dose and ranged from 41.2+/-4.4 min. (1 microg kg(-1), s.c.) to 2.7+/-0.6 min. (1000 microg kg(-1), s.c.). 2. The emetic response to RTX (10 or 100 microg kg(-1), s.c.) was blocked or markedly reduced by pre-treatment with RTX (100 microg kg(-1), s.c.), 8-OH-DPAT (100 microg kg(-1), s.c.), morphine (2 mg kg(-1), s.c.), neonatal capsaicin (100 mg kg(-1), s.c.) and the NK(1) receptor antagonist CP-99,994 (10

Cancer Neoaxonogenesis: Mechanisms and Factors Involved in the Recruitment of Peripheral Nerves by Cancer Tissue.

Peripheral nerves provide a direct connection between the brain and the tumor microenvironment. This connection allows the nervous system to influence processes associated with the development, progression, and metastasis of different tumor types. Therefore, tumor innervation by peripheral nerve fibers is currently emerging as a characteristic that contributes to multiple hallmarks of cancer. Several experimental studies have shown that cancer progression involves actively inducing the ingrowth of autonomic and sensory nerve fibers into tumor tissue. In this process, known as neoaxonogenesis,

Epicardial off-pump pulmonary vein isolation and vagal denervation improve long-term outcome and quality of life in patients with atrial fibrillation.

OBJECTIVES: The limited information available on thoracoscopic pulmonary vein isolation combined with ganglionated plexi ablation and the lack of studies regarding its effect on quality of life and physical capacity urged us to study its acute and long-term results in patients with atrial fibrillation. METHODS: Forty-three patients (mean age 57.1 years) with symptomatic atrial fibrillation referred for thoracoscopic off-pump epicardial pulmonary vein isolation and ganglionated plexi ablation using radiofrequency energy were included. RESULTS: The physical capacity improved significantly at 6

Roles of endogenous prostaglandins and cyclooxygenase izoenzymes in mucosal defense of inflamed rat stomach.

Endogenous prostaglandins (PGs) are involved in adaptive gastric protection against acute injury, and cyclooxygenase (COX)-1 is responsible for the production of PGs in this phenomenon. In the present study, we examined the effect of various COX inhibitors on gastric ulcerogenic and acid secretory responses following daily exposure of the stomach to iodoacetamide (IA) and investigated the role for COX isozyme in gastric protection under subchronic mucosal irritation. Gastric mucosal irritation was induced by addition of 0.1% IA to drinking water, and the gastric mucosa was examined on the 6th

NMDA receptor-mediated transmission of carotid body chemoreceptor input to expiratory bulbospinal neurones in dogs.

1. This study tested the hypothesis that excitatory amino acid receptors mediate the excitatory response of expiratory bulbospinal neurones to carotid body chemoreceptor inputs. 2. Studies were carried out in thiopental sodium anaesthetized, paralysed, ventilated, vagotomized dogs. 3. Brisk, short-duration chemoreceptor activation was produced by bilateral bolus injections of CO2-saturated saline (PCO2 > 700 mmHg) into the autoperfused carotid arteries. A pressurized-reservoir-solenoid valve system was used to deliver the CO2 bolus injections just prior to the onset of the neural expiratory ph

The influence of neuro-tumor interactions on tumorigenesis and therapeutic response.

The intricate crosstalk between the nervous system and tumors has emerged as a pivotal determinant of tumorigenesis, progression, and therapeutic response. This review synthesizes current insights into neuro-tumor interactions, highlighting how neuronal networks within the tumor microenvironment (TME) modulate cancer cell proliferation, invasion, and angiogenesis by releasing neurotransmitters, growth factors, etc. The neuro-immune axis, a critical interface linking neural signaling to immune regulation, is explored in depth, elucidating how neuronal-derived molecules influence the phenotype a

Inflammatory and lipid regulation by cholinergic activity in epicardial stromal cells from patients who underwent open-heart surgery.

The modulation of acetylcholine (ACh) release by botulinum toxin injection into epicardial fat diminishes atrial fibrillation (AF) recurrence. These results suggest an interaction between autonomic imbalance and epicardial fat as risk factors of AF. Our aim was to study the inflammatory, lipidic and fibroblastic profile of epicardial stroma from patients who underwent open-heart surgery, their regulation by cholinergic activity and its association with AF. We performed in vitro and ex vivo assays from paired subcutaneous and epicardial stromal cells or explants from 33 patients. Acute ACh effe

Implications of Systemic Inflammation and Periodontitis for Major Depression.

Increasing evidence suggests that infection and persistent low-grade inflammation in peripheral tissues are important pathogenic factors in major depression. Major depression is frequently comorbid with systemic inflammatory diseases/conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, allergies of different types, multiple sclerosis, cardiovascular disease, inflammatory bowel disease, chronic liver disease, diabetes, and cancer, in which pro-inflammatory cytokines are overexpressed. A number of animal studies demonstrate that systemic inflammation induced by peripheral administration of lipopolysaccharid

Neural innervation stimulates splenic TFF2 to arrest myeloid cell expansion and cancer.

CD11b(+)Gr-1(+) myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) expand in the spleen during cancer and promote progression through suppression of cytotoxic T cells. An anti-inflammatory reflex arc involving the vagus nerve and memory T cells is necessary for resolution of acute inflammation. Failure of this neural circuit could promote procarcinogenic inflammation and altered tumour immunity. Here we show that splenic TFF2, a secreted anti-inflammatory peptide, is released by vagally modulated memory T cells to suppress the expansion of MDSCs through CXCR4. Splenic denervation interrupts the anti-inf
