Abstract
Antagonists of neurokinin A which are derivatives of naturally occurring neurokinin A in which the amide bond connecting the two amino acids on the carboxy terminal end is modified are described. The antagonism is confirmed using conventional competitive binding and biochemical assays as well as conventional physiological tests and the use of these derivatives in a variety of conditions in which neurokinin A is implicated is also described.
