Biochem/physiol Actions

Neurokinin B is a ten-residue peptide. It is an endogenous tachykinin agonist with preference for the NK-3 receptor. It is a potent bronchoconstrictor and may have a neuromodulatory role in the brain. Neurokinin B has a role in slow synaptic or non-synaptic communication.

Reproductive hormones affect all stages of life from gamete production, fertilization, fetal development and parturition, neonatal development and puberty through to adulthood and senescence. The reproductive hormone cascade has, therefore, been the target for the development of numerous drugs that
