NK3R

NK3R (neurokinin-3 receptor), encoded by TACR3, is a class A G protein-coupled receptor of the tachykinin receptor family that preferentially binds the endogenous neuropeptide neurokinin B (NKB) and mediates neuroendocrine signaling in the central nervous system and hypothalamus[1][2]. Mechanistically, NKB-NK3R signaling contributes to the regulation of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) secretion and reproductive axis activity, establishing NK3R as a key component of central reproductive control pathways[3][4]. Studies of patients carrying loss-of-function TAC3 or TACR3 mutations demonstrated that disruption of this pathway causes normosmic congenital hypogonadotropic hypogonadism and revealed an essential physiological role for NK3R in pubertal development and gonadotropin regulation[3][5]. In disease-associated neuroendocrine phenotypes, impaired NK3R signaling is linked to reduced GnRH pulse frequency, altered luteinizing hormone secretion, and elevated FSH/LH ratios, providing clinically relevant experimental markers for pathway dysfunction[5]. Compared with the related tachykinin receptors NK1R and NK2R, NK3R exhibits the highest affinity for NKB and therefore mediates distinct biological functions within tachykinin signaling networks[1][2]. For experimental applications, selective NK3R agonists such as senktide and selective antagonists including talnetant, osanetant, pavinetant, and fezolinetant have been widely used to investigate receptor pharmacology, neuroendocrine regulation, and therapeutic modulation of NKB-dependent signaling pathways[1][6].
