Neuroimmune Interactions and Rhythmic Regulation of Innate Lymphoid Cells
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2021 The Earth’s rotation around its axis, is one of the parameters that never changed since life emerged. Therefore, most of the organisms from the cyanobacteria to humans have conserved natural oscillations to regulate their physiology.

Neural Regulation of Innate Immunity in Inflammatory Skin Diseases
Pharmaceuticals, 2023 As the largest barrier organ of the body, the skin is highly innervated by peripheral sensory neurons. The major function of these sensory neurons is to transmit sensations of temperature, pain, and itch to elicit protective responses.

Emerging Roles of NPQ/Spexin in Physiology and Pathology
Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2019 Spexin (SPX), also called neuropeptide Q (NPQ), is a novel endogenous neuropeptide. Spexin gene and protein are widely expressed in central nervous system and peripheral tissues in humans, rodents, goldfish, etc.

Protective effects of urocortin 2 against caerulein-induced acute pancreatitis. [PDF]
, 2019 Because little is known about the role of corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) agonists in regulating responses in pancreatitis, we evaluated the effects of urocortin 2 (UCN2) and stressin1 in caerulein-induced acute pancreatitis (AP) model in rats. Male

The neuropeptide Neuromedin U stimulates innate lymphoid cells and type 2 inflammation
Nature, 2017 The type 2 cytokines interleukin (IL)-4, IL-5, IL-9 and IL-13 have important roles in stimulating innate and adaptive immune responses that are required for resistance to helminth infection, promotion of allergic inflammation, metabolic homeostasis and ...

Platelet lysate-derived neuropeptide y influences migration and angiogenesis of human adipose tissue-derived stromal cells [PDF]
, 2018 Neuropeptide Y (NPY), a powerful neurotransmitter of the central nervous system, is a key regulator of angiogenesis and biology of adipose depots. Intriguingly, its peripheral vascular and angiogenic powerful activity is strictly associated to platelets,

CAPA neuropeptides and their receptor form an anti-diuretic hormone signalling system in the human disease vector, Aedes aegypti [PDF]
, 2020 Insect CAPA neuropeptides are homologs of mammalian neuromedin U and are known to influence ion and water balance by regulating the activity of the Malpighian ‘renal’ tubules (MTs).
