CC -!- FUNCTION: Tachykinins are active peptides which excite neurons, evoke
CC behavioral responses, are potent vasodilators and secretagogues, and
CC contract (directly or indirectly) many smooth muscles.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed by the skin glands.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the tachykinin family. {ECO:0000305}.
