Background: Substance P

Substance P (Neurokinin-1), is member of the tachykinin peptide family. Processing of preprotachykinin isoforms generates Substance P and other tachykinins. Active Substance P is an 11 amino acid peptide, RPKPQQFFGLM, that is identical across all mammalian species. Substance P is mainly secreted from C-type fibers of primary sensory afferent neurons after stimulation through protease-activated receptor 2 (PAR2). Substance P binds primarily to the neurokinin 1 receptor on neurons in the dorsal horn, transmitting pain signals through the central nervous system.
