  9. Substance P(Arg-Pro-Lys-Pro-Gln-Gln-Phe-Phe-Gly-Leu-Met-NH2)

  10. Substance P(Arg-Pro-Lys-Pro-Gln-Gln-Phe-Phe-Gly-Leu-Met-NH2) • SP, described by von Euler and Gaddum in 1931, was the first neuropeptide to be identified. • SP is a neuropeptide comprised of 11 amino acid with a wide-spread distribution in the central and peripheral nervous systems (Chang and Leeman, 1970, 1971). • SP belongs to the tachykinin family that includes SP, neurokinin A (SK), and neurokinin B.
