Pyr-Leu-Tyr-Glu-Asn-Lys-Pro-Arg-Arg-Pro-D-Trp-Ile-Leu-OH

Uses

[D-Trp11]-Neurotensin, an analogue of Neurotensin (NT), is a selective antagonist of NT in perfused rat hearts but behaves as a full agonist in guinea pig atria and rat stomach strips. [D-Trp11]-Neurotensin can inhibit NT-induced hypotension[1][2].
