The NK1 receptor is involved in the neurokinin-induced shape change of rabbit platelets [PDF]
Substance P and selective neurokinin receptor agonists have been tested for their ability to induce shape change in rabbit platelets. Substance P and the NK1 receptor agonist Ac [Arg6,Sar9,Met(O2)11]-substance P (6–11) induced shape change (EC50 = 3 and ...

Characterization of neurokinin receptor desensitization in transfected Chinese hamster ovary cells. [PDF]
The carboxy terminal cytoplasmic regions of the rat neurokinin 1 and neurokinin 2 receptors have been exchanged to determine if this region of the neurokin 1 receptor is involved in its desensitization.

Neuropeptide signaling through neurokinin-1 and neurokinin-2 receptors augments antigen presentation by human dendritic cells [PDF]
Background: Neurotransmitters, including substance P (SP) and neurokinin A (NKA), are widely distributed in both the central and peripheral nervous system and their receptors, neurokinin-1 receptor (NK1R) and neurokinin-2 receptor (NK2R), are expressed ...

Actions of tachykinins on the rabbit mesenteric artery: substance P and [Glp6,L-Pro9]SP6-11 are potent agonists for endothelial neurokinin-1 receptors [PDF]
1. Identification of the subtype of neurokinin receptor on the endothelium of the rabbit mesenteric artery was demonstrated by comparing the relative potencies of the naturally occurring tachykinins, substance P, neurokinin A and neurokinin B and the ...

Desensitization of the Neurokinin 1 Receptor Is Mediated by the Receptor Carboxy-Terminal Region, but Is Not Caused by Receptor Internalization [PDF]
The carboxy-terminal cytoplasmic regions of the rat neurokinin 1 (substance P) and neurokinin 2 (neurokinin A) receptors have been exchanged to determine if this region of the neurokinin 1 receptor is involved in its desensitization.
