    Product Description

    Scyliorhinin I is a neurokinin-1 (NK1) and NK2 receptor peptide agonist that has been found in dogfish intestines.1,2 It binds to membrane preparations of rat submandibular gland and hamster urinary bladder (Kis = 0.9 and 2 nM, respectively), tissues that endogenously express high levels of NK1 and NK2 receptors, respectively. It increases intracellular levels of inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) in KNRK rat kidney cells expressing the NK1 receptor when used at a concentration of 1 µM.2 Scyliorhinin I induces contractions in isolated and perfused carp intestinal bulb smooth muscle strips (EC50 = 15 nM).3 Intrathecal or intracerebroventricular administration of scyliorhinin I induces reciprocal hindlimb neck-scratching behavior in mice (ED50s = 0.07 and 0.05 nmol/animal, respectively).4

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
