Hypocretins, sleep, and maternal behavior
Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2023 The postpartum period is a demanding time during which mothers experience numerous physiological adaptations that enable them to care for their offspring while maintaining their wellbeing. Hypocretins, also known as orexins, are neuropeptides synthesized

Evolution of neuropeptide signalling systems
Journal of Experimental Biology, 2018 Neuropeptides are a diverse class of neuronal signalling molecules that regulate physiological processes and behaviour in animals. However, determining the relationships and evolutionary origins of the heterogeneous assemblage of neuropeptides identified

Neurosecretory protein GL stimulates food intake, de novo lipogenesis, and onset of obesity
eLife, 2017 Mechanisms underlying the central regulation of food intake and fat accumulation are not fully understood. We found that neurosecretory protein GL (NPGL), a newly-identified neuropeptide, increased food intake and white adipose tissue (WAT) in rats. NPGL-

Regulation of Feeding and Metabolism by Neuropeptide F and Short Neuropeptide F in Invertebrates
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2019 Numerous neuropeptide systems have been implicated to coordinately control energy homeostasis, both centrally and peripherally. However, the vertebrate neuropeptide Y (NPY) system has emerged as the best described one regarding this biological process ...
