The effects of three tachykinin NK1 receptor antagonists (L-668,169, (+/-)-RP 67580, and (+/-)-CP 96.345) were examined for their ability to antagonise responses evoked by substance P O-methyl ester (a selective NK1 receptor agonist) in isolated neuronal tissue (rat superior cervical ganglia and guinea-pig locus coeruleus) and smooth muscle tissues (rat urinary bladder and guinea-pig ileum longitudinal muscle/myenteric plexus). (+/-)-RP 67580 was similarly effective in antagonising responses in both rat superior cervical ganglia and urinary bladder (estimated pKa value = 7.4 for both tissues); however, (+/-)-CP 96,345 was 50-fold less effective in antagonising responses in guinea-pig locus coeruleus than in ileum longitudinal muscle/myenteric plexus (estimated pKa values = 7.6 and 9.3 respectively). It is suggested that the differential effects of (+/-)-CP 96,345 may reflect the existence of a population of NK1 receptors within guinea-pig locus coeruleus that are less sensitive to the effects of this NK1 receptor antagonist.

Background/aim: Vascular pain associated with NK1 receptor antagonists, particularly fosaprepitant, remains a significant challenge in cancer chemotherapy. The present study investigated the incidence of vascular pain with the administration of fosaprepitant and fosnetupitant and assessed the psychological burden on nurses performing venipuncture.
Patients And Methods: We conducted a prospective observational study involving 115 cancer patients receiving NK1 receptor antagonists via peripheral venous catheters.

Background: NK-1 receptor antagonists (NK-1RAs) are proven to be successful in preventing chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV). The safety profile of NK-1RAs has not been systematically analyzed in the real world. This pharmacovigilance study investigated the differences in adverse events (AEs) between NK-1RAs.

More than the sparse infiltration in glioblastoma, cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) also function inefficiently and overexpress the inhibitory markers, especially the identified NK cell receptor (NK1.1). However, most studies solely focus on how to augment tumor-infiltrating CTLs and overlook their killing maintenance.

Several data indicate that Substance P (SP) neurokinin type 1 receptor (NK1R) is at the center of the interaction between cancer cells and peripheral sensory neurons. Selecting the appropriate cancer cell line and its susceptibility to being modulated by NK1 antagonists are critical to studying this complex interaction. In the current study, we have focused on this selection by comparing several aspects of the triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) cell line (MDA-MB-231) with a modified murine cell line (E0771), both expressing luciferase.

Article Synopsis
- Olanzapine is an atypical antipsychotic that helps prevent nausea and vomiting, particularly after highly emetogenic chemotherapy (HEC), but it can cause side effects like hyperglycemia and drowsiness.
- A systematic review and meta-analysis assessed the effectiveness of olanzapine combined with standard triplet antiemetic therapy compared to triplet therapy alone, focusing on outcomes like nausea control and adverse effects.
- Results showed that adding olanzapine significantly improved nausea and vomiting prevention in both acute and delayed phases with minimal adverse effects, indicating it can be beneficial for patients undergoing HEC.
