A: Pulmonary neurokinin 1 receptor (NK1R) gene expression. In mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) and blunt tail trauma (TT) lungs 48 hours after trauma, NK1R gene expression is significantly up-regulated in mTBI lungs. B: NK-1R protein expression. Quantification of lung protein intensity relative to GAPDH 48 hours after trauma. The up-regulated NK1R gene expression seen in A is confirmed because the protein levels are significantly up-regulated in mTBI lungs. Data are expressed as means ± SEM. n = 5 mTBI (A); n = 7 TT (A); n = 8 mTBI and TT (B). ∗P < 0.05, ∗∗P < 0.01 versus TT (unpaired two-tailed t-test).
