Neuropeptide Y: A stressful review [PDF]
Neuropeptides, 2016 Stress is defined as an adverse condition that disturbs the homeostasis of the body and activates adaptation responses. Among the many pathways and mediators involved, neuropeptide Y (NPY) stands out due to its unique stress-relieving, anxiolytic and neuroprotective properties.

Overexpression of neuropeptide Y decreases responsiveness to neuropeptide Y [PDF]
Neuropeptides, 2020 Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is an endogenous neuropeptide that is abundantly expressed in the central nervous system. NPY is involved in various neurological processes and neuropsychiatric disorders, including fear learning and anxiety disorders. Reduced levels of NPY are reported in Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) patients, and NPY has been proposed as

Cardiovascular Effects of Neuropeptide Y [PDF]
American Journal of Hypertension, 1988 Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is present in the brain, the adrenal medulla, and peripheral sympathetic nerves. This peptide is released together with catecholamines during sympathoadrenal activation. It possesses direct vasoconstrictor properties that are not dependent on simultaneous adrenergic activation.

Epilepsy Currents, 2003 It is a central tenet of the epilepsy field that seizures result from the imbalance of excitation over inhibition ( 1 ). The bulk of excitation is mediated by the neurotransmitter glutamate, whereas inhibition results mainly from the actions of γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA).

Neuropeptide Y and the Cerebral Circulation [PDF]
Journal of Cerebral Blood Flow & Metabolism, 1990 The significance of neuropeptide Y (NPY) in the cerebral circulation has been examined in the rat using immunocytochemistry, isolated cerebral artery preparations, and quantitative autoradiographic techniques for determining local CBF and glucose utilisation.

Neuropeptide Y in itch regulation
Neuropeptides, 2019 Itch is a somatosensory sensation that informs the organism about the presence of potentially harmful substances or parasites, and initiates scratching to remove the threat. Itch-inducing (pruritogenic) substances activate primary afferent neurons in the skin through interactions with specific receptors that converts the stimulus into an electrical ...

Neuropeptides such as neuropeptide Y (NPY) have long been proposed to play a role in the pathogenesis of inflammatory diseases. NPY is a 36 amino acid neuropeptide which participates in the regulation of a large number of physiological and pathophysiological processes in the cardiorespiratory system, immune system, nervous system and endocrine system ...
