Senktide selectively interacts with a tachykinin receptor subtype (SP-N) and is in studies to find out the regulation, distribution, and functional role of this receptor. Senktide is also reported to be an NK-3R agonist and may cause behavior similar to serotonergic stimulation in murine models. NK-3R (tachykinin NK-3 receptors) have been used to mediate bronchoconstriction in guinea pig lungs, and activation of these receptors by Senktide has been to induce bronchoconstriction. This agent has the ability to induce increased numbers of Fos-LI neurons in numerous regions of the guinea pig brain.
