Impaired defense mechanism against inflammation, hyperalgesia, and airway hyperreactivity in somatostatin 4 receptor gene-deleted mice

Abstract: We have shown that somatostatin released from activated capsaicin-sensitive nociceptive nerve endings during inflammatory processes elicits systemic anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects. With the help of somatostatin receptor subtype 4 gene-deleted mice (sst4 ؊/؊ ), we provide here several lines of evidence that this receptor has a protective role in a variety of inflammatory disease models; several symptoms are more severe in the sst4 knockout animals than in their wild-type counterparts. Acute carrageenan… Show more

“…Mice in OA group were injected with pure OA (Sigma-Aldrich Co., USA) slowly through the tail veins at a volume of 0.6ml/kg by a Micro Sample instrument to induce acute lung injury, and saline was administered 30min before OA injection as vehicle treatment. In SOM+OA group, animals received SOM (1μg/g) 30min before OA (0.6ml/kg) injection [22,23]. All procedures were approved by Experimental Animal Ethics Committee at the Third Military Medical University (TMMU) and performed in accordance with the TMMU guidelines for the care and use of experimental animal which are consistent with the NIH guidelines.…”

“…Ϫ/Ϫ mice could also exacerbate systemic vascular water loss, based on studies showing that the release of this neuropeptide from intranasal LPS (and presumably endovanilloid)-stimulated airway sensory neurons is anti-inflammatory and protective against pulmonary and systemic injury (12,17,18). As such, a reduction in edema with TRPV1 inhibition would not be expected, rather it would be exacerbated, as implied by Fig.…”

“…It is proposed that selective inhibition of TRPV1 and/or specific agonist synthesis pathways may represent a feasible approach to prevent select components of lung injury, such as cytotoxicity via the ER stress response pathway, but that such therapies will require site-specific delivery, based on results that systemic Trpv1 inhibition is associated with adverse consequences, including increased lung (and other tissue) injury, morbidity, and mortality (8,12,17,18,38,43).…”

“…A significant anti-inflammatory effect of SRIH has been demonstrated in different animal models in which the experimental induction of inflammation is associated with capsaicin-sensitive nerve terminal stimulation, such as arthritis, subacute pneumonia, and contact dermatitis [19,24]. Recently, elegant studies with SSTR4 –/– animals have revealed that this SSTR subtype is crucial for SRIH anti-inflammatory effects in mice [24,25].…”
