Published Data
Fig.1 Human DCs induce both NK2R and TAC1 gene after IFN-g or poly I:C stimulation.
Human DCs made from PBMC adherent cells were either left untreated (control) or given IFN-𝛾 or poly I:C for a 24-hour period. Confocal microscopy was used to compare the amounts of hNK2R protein expression in the control (left panel) and IFN-𝛾-treated (right panel) human DCs.

Research Highlights
Here, they characterize a new mouse strain with congenital Tacr2 ablation to examine the physiological roles of NK2R in controlling the reproductive axis. Similar to agonists of NK1R and NK3R, activation of NK2R in control mice induced acute luteinizing hormone (LH) responses.

In vitro and in vivo, Tacr2 negatively impacted the expression of nNOS and VIP. Its ablation in mice increased the expression of nNOS and VIP, improved NO signaling, and altered the Creb and NF-κB signaling, ultimately resulting in the disruption of stomach emptying in Tacr2-/- animals.
