Methods Substance P(SP) in psoriatic lesions before and 6 weeks after the treatment with capsaicin was detedted by radioimmunoassary. Results After 3 weeks and 6 weeks treatment with capsaicin, SP in psoriatic lesions was decreased ( P <0.05), while it in the self control group was not decreased; Overall the efficient incidence in therapeutic group was 78.8% , while it in the control group was 36.8% . There was significant difference between them (χ 2 =16.30, P<0.001). Conclusion Capsaicin inhibits dermal inflammatory responses and proliferation of keratinocytes by decreasing the expression of SP in psoriasis vulgaris.展开更多

Methods DRGs were dissected from 15-day-old embryonic Wistar rats. DRG neurons were dissociated and cultured, and then exposed to different concentrations of NGF （10 ng/mL, 30 ng/mL, or 100 ng/mL） for 72 h. The neurons cultured in media without NGF served as control. RT-PCR were used for detecting the mRNAs of SP and vanilloid receptor 1 （VR1） in the DRG neurons. The SP basal and capsaicin （100 nmol/L）-induced release in the culture were measured by radioimmunoassay （RIA）. Results SP mRNA and VR1 mRNA expression increased in primary cultured DRG neurons in a dose-dependent manner of NGF. Both basal release and capsaicin-evoked release of SP increased in NGF-treated DRG neurons compared with in control group. The capsaicin-evoked release of SP also increased in a dose-dependent manner of NGF. Conclusion NGF may promote both basal release and capsaicin-evoked release of SP. NGF might increase the sensitivity of nociceptors by increasing the SP mRNA or VR1 mRNA.展开更多

CAP of various concentrations was instilled into the urinary bladder, and intravesical pressure, detrusor contraction and micturition status were recorded; then the trigone of the bladder was cut off and prepared for peroxidase -antiperoxidase (PAP) immunohistochemical investigation. The changes on the distribution of Sub- stance P (SP) in control and experimental groups were compared. The results showed that the intravesical application of CAP caused a significant change in the urinary bladder function. At a low concentration of CAP there was a slight increase of maximal detrusor pressure, but at a high concentration of CAP the maximal intravesical pressure was significantly decreased and associated with urinary retention and urinary incontinence. PAP sustaining had shown a depletion of SP in CAP-treated urinary bladder in rats, and this depletion was more significant at high concentrations of CAP. Because this depletion could block C-fiber transmission, detrusor function entered, from primary excitation phase, a late inhibitory phase. This suggests that a local application of CAP into urinary bladder could be used in the treatment of neurogenic bladder (detrusor hyperreflexia) to relieve frequency, urgency, incontinence and improve renal function.展开更多
