title: [Neutral endopeptidase (NEP)--modulator of neurogenic inflammation].
abstract: Stimulation of the sensory nerves causes the release of neuropeptides such as substance P, CGRP, neurokinin A and B. NEP cleaves and inactivates a proportion of the peptide thus limiting the neurogenic inflammation. The role of NEP have been discussed.
