摘要
Two neuropeptides were isolated from synganglia (central nervous system) of the hard tick, Ixodes sinensis. Their primary sequences were established as Leu-Val-Val-Tyr-Pro-Trp-Thr-Lys and Trp-Glu-Lys-Leu-Gly-Ser-Met-Glu-Thr-Leu. By hot plate bioassay, neuropeptide a displayed strong antino-ciceptive effect in mice by a dose-dependent behavior, while neuropeptide b had some relaxant effects on the isolated rat strip. These neuropeptides might be involved in down-regulating the host’s defensive reaction.
