Correlations of Neuropeptide Y and Adiponectin Serum Levels in Obese Type 2 Diabetics in Relation to Insulin Resistance [PDF]
Al-Anbar Medical JournalBackground The importance of obesity in the progression of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) is represented by defective biochemical markers' production and release that may interact with each other, resulting in negative outcomes for the diabetic state ...

Skeleton interoception regulates bone and fat metabolism through hypothalamic neuroendocrine NPY
eLife, 2021 The central nervous system regulates activity of peripheral organs through interoception. In our previous study, we have demonstrated that PGE2/EP4 skeleton interception regulate bone homeostasis.

Lower Plasma Neuropeptide Y Level in Patients With Atypical Febrile Convulsions
Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, 2010 Febrile convulsion (FC) is the most common neurological disease in children. Cases with seizures that persist for more than 15 minutes or recurrent seizures within the same febrile illness are considered to be atypical and may have a different prognosis.

Lack of Correlation between Plasma Neuropeptide Y and Typical and Atypical Febrile Seizures
Acta Medica Iranica, 2013 It is known that neuropeptide Y which is widely distributed throughout the central nervous system is able to prevent seizures in animals. There are limited studies about the role of neuropeptide Y in febrile seizures. This study was conducted to evaluate

A Promising Therapeutic Target for Metabolic Diseases: Neuropeptide Y Receptors in Humans
Cellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2017 Human neuropeptide Y (hNPY) is one of the most widely expressed neurotransmitters in the human central and peripheral nervous systems. It consists of 36 highly conserved amino acid residues, and was first isolated from the porcine hypothalamus in 1982 ...

Techniques in Neuropeptide Processing, Trafficking, and Secretion
, 2007 Neuropeptides function as neurotransmitters and neuromodulators. They are synthesized as larger precursors at the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER), trafficked to the trans-Golgi network (TGN), and sorted into granules of the regulated secretory pathway (
