Endocytosis of the tachykinin neuropeptide, neurokinin B, in astrocytes and its role in cellular copper uptake

The tachykinin neuropeptide, neurokinin B (NKB), belongs to a family of peptides having diverse roles in the brain. NKB, along with several other tachykinins, has been identified as a copper-binding peptide, however the physiological relevance of the binding is unclear. Previously, NKB was shown to...
