GR64349 is a peptide agonist of the neurokinin-2 (NK2) receptor.1 It selectively induces contractions in isolated rat colon muscularis mucosae, which endogenously express NK2 receptors, over isolated guinea pig ileum longitudinal smooth muscle and everted rat portal vein, which endogenously express NK1 and NK3 receptors, respectively (EC50s = 3.7, 4,237, and 1,177 nM, respectively). GR64349 also induces contractions in isolated guinea pig trachea in a concentration-dependent manner.2 In vivo, GR64349 (1.1 nmol/animal) induces contralateral rotations in rats when infused into the substantia nigra.3
