Substance P（Neurokinin P，AbMole，M9080）是一种11氨基酸的神经肽，属于速激肽家族，主要通过激活神经激肽1受体（NK1R）介导信号传导，涉及痛觉传递、炎症调节和细胞间通信等细胞活动，还能调节钙离子流量、ERK磷酸化和NF-κB活化等过程[1]。在细胞实验方面，Substance P（CAS No.：33507-63-0）在H9C2大鼠心肌细胞中以1-10 nM浓度预处理后，可增加细胞中磷酸化Akt（p-Akt）的水平并抑制缺氧/再氧合诱导的细胞凋亡[2]；Substance P在皮肤肥大细胞中，可诱导浓度依赖性的组胺释放，而阻断NK1R后可抑制此效应[3]；Substance P还在SiHa宫颈癌细胞中，以浓度依赖方式促进增殖和侵袭，并激活ERK1/2磷酸化[4]；Substance P在兔成骨细胞模型中，以1 μM的浓度有效促进成骨分化和组织修复[5]；Substance P（Neurokinin P）还可以用于神经系统和疼痛相关的研究，例如在ICR小鼠神经性疼痛模型中的研究显示，静脉注射Neurokinin P（1 nmol/kg）可抑制疼痛相关炎症和疼痛因子的活性[6]；Substance P在豚鼠和人类迷走神经中，引起去极化，而Aprepitant 可抑制上述效应[7]；Substance P还在猪急性心肌梗塞模型中，通过静脉注射（5 nmol/kg）后提供心脏保护作用[8]。上述这些研究揭示了Substance P在细胞信号传导和动物模型中的多功能性，为理解其生物学作用提供了基础。
