WormBook, 2008 The role of neuropeptides in modulating behavior is slowly being elucidated. With the sequencing of the C. elegans genome, the extent of the neuropeptide genes in C. elegans can be determined. To date, 113 neuropeptide genes encoding over 250 distinct neuropeptides have been identified.

Relaxin-3 Innervation From the Nucleus Incertus to the Parahippocampal Cortex of the Rat
Frontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2021 Spatial learning and memory processes depend on anatomical and functional interactions between the hippocampus and the entorhinal cortex. A key neurophysiological component of these processes is hippocampal theta rhythm, which can be driven from ...

Orexin/Hypocretin and MCH Neurons: Cognitive and Motor Roles Beyond Arousal
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2021 The lateral hypothalamus (LH) is classically implicated in sleep-wake control. It is the main source of orexin/hypocretin and melanin-concentrating hormone (MCH) neuropeptides in the brain, which have been both implicated in arousal state switching ...

Neuropeptide ACP facilitates lipid oxidation and utilization during long-term flight in locusts
eLife, 2021 Long-term flight depends heavily on intensive energy metabolism in animals; however, the neuroendocrine mechanisms underlying efficient substrate utilization remain elusive.

DINeR: Database for Insect Neuropeptide Research [PDF]
, 2017 Neuropeptides are responsible for regulating a variety of functions, including development, metabolism, water and ion homeostasis, and as neuromodulators in circuits of the central nervous system.

Coordinated RNA-Seq and peptidomics identify neuropeptides and G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) in the large pine weevil Hylobius abietis, a major forestry pest [PDF]
, 2018 Hylobius abietis (Linnaeus), or large pine weevil (Coleoptera, Curculionidae), is a pest of European coniferous forests. In order to gain understanding of the functional physiology of this species, we have assembled a de novo transcriptome of H. abietis,

The neuropeptide NMU amplifies ILC2-driven allergic lung inflammation
Nature, 2017 Type 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) both contribute to mucosal homeostasis and initiate pathologic inflammation in allergic asthma. However, the signals that direct ILC2s to promote homeostasis versus inflammation are unclear. To identify such molecular

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2012 Neuropeptide W (NPW), which was first isolated from the porcine hypothalamus, exists in two forms, consisting of 23 (NPW23) or 30 (NPW30) amino acids. These neuropeptides bind to one of two NPW receptors, either NPBWR1 (otherwise known as GPR7) or NPBWR2 (GPR8), which belong to the G protein-coupled receptor family.
