| Research Abstract |
Endokinins are novel tachykinin peptides, in which endokinin C/D (EKC/D) has the inhibitory effect on noxious stimulation. Replacement of EKC/D with D-type amino acid remarkably extended this effect. Also, intrathecal administration of hemokinin-1, another novel tachykinin peptide, did not induce thermal hyperalgesia. This effect of hemokinin-1 was caused by 3 amino acids consisting ofN-terminal region of this peptide.
