Gene Information from Publications

Publication Link Summary of findings
17175032 Observational study and meta-analysis of gene-disease association. (HuGE Navigator)
17448763 Observational study of gene-disease association. (HuGE Navigator)
17561251 Placental mRNA expression of NKB was significantly higher after term and preterm labor (P<0.001) than cesarean section, and highest after preterm labor
16709596 Results determined the placenta to be the main site of TAC3 expression with levels 2.6-fold higher than the brain and TAC3 expression was found to be significantly higher in pre-eclamptic placenta (1.7-fold, P < 0.05) than in normal controls.
14634580 Higher neurokinin B concentrations in normotensive pregnant women may be due to the advanced gestational age and/or the result of a negative interaction of other vasoactive substances. The role of neurokinin B in preeclampsia remains to be determined.
15317475 three-dimensional structure
12727971 study demonstrates a paracrine role for neurokinin B in the regulation of fetal placental vascular tone
14700748 NKB plays a role in the maintenance of high placental blood flow in normal pregnancy
15123623 mode of vascular regulation in which GATA-1 controls NK-B synthesis in erythroid cells
