Background
Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is a chronic inflammatory disease often accompanied by impairment of sense of smell. This symptom has been somewhat overlooked, and its relationship to inflammatory cytokines, tissue compression, neuronal loss, and neurogenesis is still unclear.
Methods
In order to elucidate potential mechanisms leading to CRS in humans, we have...
Three subtypes of neurotensin receptor have been described, two members of the heptahelical transmembrane domain G protein-coupled receptor superfamily NT-1R and NT-2R, and NT-3R unrelated to this family. We have generated NT-1R deficient (NT-1R -/- ) mice. NT-1R -/- mice were born at the expected Mendelian frequency without obvious abnormalities and they were fertile...
The clearance of plasma adrenaline and noradrenaline by human adipose tissue suggests the expression of the catecholamine-degrading enzyme monoamine oxidases and of catecholamine transport systems in adipocytes. In the present study, we identified and characterized the monoamine oxidases and an extraneuronal noradrenaline transporter expressed in human adipocytes. Enzyme assays using the monoamine...
