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.

Recently, a subset of neurons was identified in the arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus that colocalize three neuropeptides, kisspeptin, neurokinin B, and dynorphin, each of which has been shown to play a critical role in the central control of reproduction.
