General description
Substance-P receptor (UniProt P14600; also known as Neurokinin-1 receptor, NK-1 receptor, NK-1R, SPR, Tachykinin receptor 1) is encoded by the Tacr1 (also known as Nk1r, Tac1r) gene (Gene ID 24807) in rat species. NK-1, NK-2 and NK-3 are receptors that mediate the biological activities of tachykinins, including substance P (SP), neurokinin A (NKA), neurokinin B (NKB), ranakinin, kassinin, neuropeptide gamma, and eledoisin, widely distributed in the central and peripheral nervous systems. SP shows the highest affinity toward NK-1R (substance-P receptor) and exerts its biological activities via NK-1R, including addition, depression, chronic inflammation, and cancer progression. The involvement of NK-1R in acute pancreatitis through mediating neurogenic inflammation has also been reported. Upon stimulation by SP, the NK-1R interacts with multiple G proteins, including Gαs, Gαq/11, Gαi/o, Gα12, and Gα13, generating second messengers and activating downstream effector molecules. After binding NK-1R, SP induces a clathrin-dependent internalization of the receptor-ligand complex, SP is then degraded and the receptor is recycled to the cell surface. NK-1R is a 7-transmembrane (32-54, 65-86, 107-128, 149-169, 195-219, 249-270, 284-308) GPCR, having its N-terminal end (a.a. 1-31) at the extracelluar side and C-terminal end (a.a. 309-407) at the cytoplasmic side. There exist a second alternatively spliced human NK-1R isoform that lacks the C-terminal cytoplasmic domain (a.a. 312-407 missing). The full-length form enhances the growth of cancer cells and stimulates the production of cytokines, which up-regulate the truncated form. The truncated form mediates malignancy and is more abundant in colonic epithelial cells from patients with colitis-associated cancer. In cancer cells, the NK-1 receptor is mainly localized on the plasma membrane and in cytoplasm, and occasionally also in the nucleus.

This work tests the hypothesis that bladder instillation with vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) modulates sensory and motor nerve plasticity, and, consequently, bladder function and visceral sensitivity.In addition to C57BL/6J, ChAT-cre mice were used for visualization of bladder cholinergic nerves.
