Tissue sections of human cervical trachea were processed for immunohistochemical demonstration of receptors for substance P [using an anti-SP anti-idiotypic antiserum directed toward the ligand binding site of the receptor (Couraud J-Y, Escher ED, Regoli D, Imhof V, Rossignol B, Pradelles P. Anti-substance P anti-idiotypic antibodies: Characterization and biological activities. J Biol Chem 1985;260:9461-9; Couraud J-Y, Maillet S, Grassi J, Frobert Y, Pradelles P. Characterization and properties of anti-substance P antiidiotypic antibodies. Methods Enzymol 1989; 178:275-300)] and vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP; utilizing a monoclonal antibody toward VIP receptors of an adenocarcinoma cell line (Pichon J, Hirn M, Muller J-M, Mangeat P, Marvaldi J. Anticell surface monoclonal antibodies which antagonize the action of VIP in a human adenocarcinoma cell line (HT29). EMBO J 1983;2:1017-22)], respectively. Mucus cells of the submucosal glands (identified by periodic acid Schiff staining) and neuroendocrine cells of the respiratory epithelium (identified by immunoreactivity to protein gene product 9.5) displayed intense VIP receptor-immunoreactivity. Other tissue components known to respond to exogenously administered VIP, e.g., trachealis muscle, lacked VIP receptor-immunoreactivity, indicating that the monoclonal antibody did not label all receptor subtypes. In accordance with the known pharmacological actions of substance P upon the airways, the anti-substance P receptor antibody labeled the trachealis muscle, submucosal glands, and respiratory epithelium, predominantly at the luminal aspect. Since substance P as well as the structurally related tachykinin, neurokinin A, competed with the anti-receptor antibody in binding to the tissue section, it is likely that both NK-1 and NK-2 receptor subtypes were labeled. The present histochemical approach to localize peptide receptors in the trachea allowed precise analysis of distribution unreached by previous studies using autoradiography. Together with pharmacological data, these morphological findings contribute to the understanding of the sequences of events evoked by the neuropeptides, substance P and VIP, in the human trachea.

D004847 Epithelial Cells Cells that line the inner and outer surfaces of the body by forming cellular layers (EPITHELIUM) or masses. Epithelial cells lining the SKIN; the MOUTH; the NOSE; and the ANAL CANAL derive from ectoderm; those lining the RESPIRATORY SYSTEM and the DIGESTIVE SYSTEM derive from endoderm; others (CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM and LYMPHATIC SYSTEM) derive from mesoderm. Epithelial cells can be classified mainly by cell shape and function into squamous, glandular and transitional epithelial cells.

D017981 Receptors, Neurotransmitter Cell surface receptors that bind signalling molecules released by neurons and convert these signals into intracellular changes influencing the behavior of cells. Neurotransmitter is used here in its most general sense, including not only messengers that act to regulate ion channels, but also those which act on second messenger systems and those which may act at a distance from their release sites. Included are receptors for neuromodulators, neuroregulators, neuromediators, and neurohumors, whether or not located at synapses.
