1.MECHANISM OF ACTION

This analog acts as a potent and selective agonist for the Neurokinin 2 (NK2) receptor. The incorporation of β-alanine at position 8 increases resistance to peptidase cleavage, prolonging its biological activity. Upon binding to the NK2 receptor, it activates the associated Gq protein, triggering the phospholipase C (PLC) pathway. 


2.PRODUCT INDICATIONS

This product is indicated for in vitro and in vivo research in pharmacology, smooth muscle physiology, and neurobiology. Key applications include: investigating the role of NK2 receptors in bronchoconstriction, gastrointestinal motility, and bladder function; serving as a stable reference agonist in functional assays using isolated tissue preparations.


3.CLINICAL EFFICACY OF PRODUCT

[β-Ala8]-Neurokinin A (4-10) is a research tool, not a clinical therapeutic. Its efficacy is defined by its utility as a robust and stable pharmacological probe. Research utilizing this analog has been instrumental in delineating the specific physiological roles of NK2 receptor signaling.
