Acute restraint stress activates functional NK1 receptor in the colon of female rats: involvement of steroids
Open accessAbstract
Background and aims: Psychological factors have been implicated in the aetiology of irritable bowel syndrome characterised by intestinal altered motility and visceral hypersensitivity. Similar disorders have been found in rats under stressful conditions. The role of tachykinins in bowel dysfunctions caused by stress is not fully documented. Therefore, we investigated the influence of stress on NK1 receptor activation at the colonic level in female rats. Methods: The stress procedure used consisted of two hours of partial restraint. Histamine release was measured from colonic samples of control and stressed animals and the effect of SR140333, a NK1 receptor antagonist, on substance P induced histamine release was determined. Involvement of steroids has been evaluated in this response. Results: NK1 receptor antagonist was found to inhibit substance P induced histamine release in samples from stressed female rats but not in samples from control animals. Previous treatment of female rats with RU 486 abolished this effect observed in stressed animals. Similarly, in samples from stressed female rats previously ovariectomised, SR140333 failed to inhibit substance P induced histamine release but previous treatment with both progesterone and oestrogen restored its effect. Conclusions: Stress induces NK1 receptor activation in the colon, and ovarian steroids are involved in this response.

Increased local production of estrogen and proinflammatory cytokines may induce NK1R in myometrium, causing uterine hyperactivity and subsequently pain.
“This may suggest that increased local production of estrogen and proinflammatory cytokines may induce NK1R in myometrium, causing uterine hyperactivity and, subsequently, pain, as in colon72,73.”

NK1R antagonism reduces anxiety and emotional arousal circuit response to noxious visceral distension in women with irritable bowel syndrome.
“Moreover, NK1R antagonism has been shown to reduce anxiety and emotional arousal circuit response to noxious visceral distension in women with irritable bowel syndrome107, which is likely attributable, at least in part, to increased colonic hypermotility induced by SP and NK1R activation72,73.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
