N2 - Mammalian tachykinis dose-dependently activate guinea-pig alveolar macrophages, by interacting with tachykinin NK-2 receptors, mainly. By evaluating the effects of different NK-2 tachykinin receptor antagonists, we now provide evidence that tachykinin NK-2 receptors in guinea-pig alveolar macrophages meet the pharmacological criteria used to define the NK-2B subtype.
