NEP(1-40) is a Nogo-66 receptor (NgR) antagonist peptide, reversing the injury-induced shift in distribution of microglia morphologies by limiting myelin-based inhibition[1].
NEP(1-40) (89 μg/kg, ip, 15 min and 19 h post-injury) administration further shifts distributions of microglia away from an injury-induced activated morphology towards greater proportions of rod and macrophage-like morphologies[1].
