Tachykinin NK3-receptor deficiency does not inhibit pulmonary eosinophilia in allergic mice.

Abstract:

:Tachykinins are important in the development of pulmonary inflammation in mice but the tachykinin receptor subtype mediating this response has not been defined. To elucidate the role of tachykinin NK3-receptors on allergen-induced pulmonary inflammation, studies were performed on ovalbumin (OVA) sensitized and challenged mice with genetic disruption of the tachykinin NK3-receptor (NK3-/-). Aerosol OVA (0.5%) challenge produced eosinophil influx into the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and lung tissue, goblet cell hyperplasia and damage to the airway epithelium of both NK3-/- mice and in wild type control mice (NK3+/+). There was no difference in the magnitude of these allergic inflammatory pulmonary responses between NK3-/- and NK3+/+ mice. These results find no role for tachykinin NK3-receptors on the pulmonary eosinophilia and lung damage after antigen challenge in mice.
