Description

Substance P is a neuropeptide that binds to the tachykinin receptor NK1. It has potent anti-inflammatory and mitogenic activities, which are mediated through its binding to the NK1 receptor. Substance P can stimulate lung cancer cells to proliferate and inhibit their apoptosis, which may be due to an autocrine mechanism. In addition, it has been shown that substance P can potentiate the growth of some cancers such as colon cancer in vitro and in vivo by increasing DNA synthesis and cell proliferation. This peptide also has a dose-dependent effect on cell growth, with high doses inhibiting cell proliferation at higher levels than low doses.
