GtoPdb Ligand ID: 13042

Synonyms: tachykinin-HR
Comment: This is an eleven amino acid (aa) linear peptide that was isolated from the skin of Hoplobatrachus Rugulosus frogs [1]. The peptide sequence is KPNPDRFYGLM-NH2. Its carboxy terminal region contains the tachykinin consensus sequence FxGLM. TK-HR is highly homologous to tachykinin peptides isolated from other frog species, Theloderma kwangsiensis (TK-The1; one aa difference) and Hyla simplex (TK-H1; 2 aa differences).

Bioactivity Comments
TK-HR is reported to enhance wound healing in in vitro and in vivo models, via activation of the NK1 receptor (TACR1) and the MAPK and TGF-β/Smad signaling pathways [1]. It exhibits significant modulatory effects on the biological functions of many cell types that are involved in the inflammatory, proliferative, and remodeling stages of wound healing (including macrophages, neutrophils, endothelial cells, and keratinocytes). The wound-healing properties of TK-HR are negated in the presence of the selective NK1 receptor antagonist aprepitant.
