Analogues highly selective for receptors for substance P [beta-Ala4,Sar9,Met(02)11]-SP(4-11), for neurokinin A, [Nle10]-NKA(4-10), and for neurokinin B, [beta-Asp4,MePhe7]-NKB(4-10), were administered intraarterially before and after atropine or tetrodotoxin, to characterize the locations on nerve and muscle of the different receptor subtypes in the canine antrum, pylorus and duodenum. Circular muscle strips from each region were also studied in vitro. The NK-2 receptors in the antrum and the pylorus were located postsynaptically on smooth muscle. The NK-3 receptors, on the other hand, were located on neuronal sites in the antrum and duodenum. NK-1 receptors were located on neuronal and nonneuronal sites in the antrum, pylorus and duodenum. Only nonneural receptors could be activated in vitro.

D009130 Muscle, Smooth Unstriated and unstriped muscle, one of the muscles of the internal organs, blood vessels, hair follicles, etc. Contractile elements are elongated, usually spindle-shaped cells with centrally located nuclei. Smooth muscle fibers are bound together into sheets or bundles by reticular fibers and frequently elastic nets are also abundant.

D011706 Pyloric Antrum The region between the sharp indentation at the lower third of the STOMACH (incisura angularis) and the junction of the PYLORUS with the DUODENUM.
