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.

Inhibition of Food Intake by PACAP in the Hypothalamic Ventromedial Nuclei is Mediated by NMDA Receptors [PDF]

, 2014
Central injections of pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP) into the ventromedial nuclei (VMN) of the hypothalamus produce hypophagia that is dependent upon the PAC1 receptor; however, the signaling downstream of this receptor in the

Comparative effects of Alpha Tocopherol and Ascorbic Acid on Chronic Stress Induced Neuropeptide Y Derangements

Journal of Islamabad Medical and Dental College, 2020
Background: Chronic stress decreases resilience of the body mainly due to hormonal imbalance. Neuropeptide Y-ergic system is abnormally regulated in chronic stress due to reduction-oxidation imbalance.

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.

Anxious Profile Influences Behavioral and Immunohistological Findings in the Pilocarpine Model of Epilepsy

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2021
Anxiety and epilepsy have a complex bidirectional relationship, where a depressive/anxious condition is a factor that can trigger seizures which in turn can aggravate the depressive/anxious condition. In addition, brain structures such as the hippocampus

Renal neuroendocrine control of desiccation and cold tolerance by Drosophila suzukii [PDF]

, 2017
Background: Neuropeptides are central to the regulation of physiological, and behavioural processes in insects, directly impacting cold and desiccation survival.

Neuropeptide Y in Alcohol Addiction and Affective Disorders

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2017
Neuropeptide Y (NPY), a neuropeptide highly conserved throughout evolution, is present at high levels in the central nervous system (CNS), as well as in peripheral tissues such as the gut and cardiovascular system.

Myocardial capillary density after neuropeptide Y antagonist administration in normal and high-fat diet C57BL6 mice

Advanced Biomedical Research, 2016
Background: Neuropeptide Y (NPY), a 36 amino acid peptide, has several effects on cardiovascular system. It is demonstrated that the angiogenic activity of NPY is similar to fibroblast growth factor and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF).

Identifying functional populations among the interneurons in laminae I-III of the spinal dorsal horn [PDF]

, 2017
The spinal dorsal horn receives input from primary afferent axons, which terminate in a modality-specific fashion in different laminae. The incoming somatosensory information is processed through complex synaptic circuits involving excitatory and ...
