Description:
Anti-Substance P Receptor, pain
Replaces:
AB5800
Trade Name:
Chemicon (Millipore)
Specificity:
Specific for the Substance P Receptor (NK-1).
Molecular Weight:
35 kDa
Epitope:
C terminus
Immunogen:
Synthetic peptide that corresponds to a 23 amino acid sequence (385-407) of the COOH terminus of the rat Substance P Receptor (NK-1).
Background Information:
Substance P is a tachykinin family neuropeptide that functions as a neurotransmitter and neuromodulator. In the CNS, Substance P is involved in the regulation of mood, anxiety, sleep, saiety, reinforcement, respiratory rhythm and pain processing. In nociception, the neuropeptide is released at local spinal cord synapses. Recent research now shows substance P is potentially involved in endothelial cell differentiation as well as diverse roles in neuroinflammatory response. The endogenous receptor for Substance P is neurokinin 1 receptor (NK1 receptor), which belongs to the tachykinin receptor sub-family of GPCRs.

Entrez Gene Summary:
This gene encodes four products of the tachykinin peptide hormone family, substance P and neurokinin A, as well as the related peptides, neuropeptide K and neuropeptide gamma. These hormones are thought to function as neurotransmitters which interact with nerve receptors and smooth muscle cells. They are known to induce behavioral responses and function as vasodilators and secretagogues. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
UniProt Summary:
FUNCTION: SwissProt: P20366 # Tachykinins are active peptides which excite neurons, evoke behavioral responses, are potent vasodilators and secretagogues, and contract (directly or indirectly) many smooth muscles.
