- Abstract:
- The tachykinins substance P and neurokinin A participate in the regulation of gastrointestinal motility, secretion, vascular permeability and pain sensitivity. Advances made during the past two years corroborate a causal involvement of tachykinins in inflammation-induced disturbances of gut function, such as dysmotility, secretory diarrhoea, oedema and hyperalgesia. It would therefore appear that tachykinin receptors, which in the digestive system are expressed in a cell-specific manner, represent attractive targets for novel therapeutics in gastroenterology.
