K1 Leiomyomas K1 myometrium K1 NK1 receptor short isoform K1 tachykinins K1 tachykinin receptors AB Mammalian tachykinins (TKs)are a family of biologicallyactive and structurallyrelated peptides derived from threedifferent genes: TAC1 encodes for substance P (SP) and neurokinin A (NKA),TAC3 encodes for neurokinin B (NKB),and TAC4 encodes for hemokinin-1(HK-1) (1, 2). Tachykinins exert mostof their actions by interacting withspecific G protein–coupled membranereceptors: neurokinin 1 receptor(NK1R), NK2R, and NK3R encoded bythe TACR1, TACR2, and TACR3.
