Neuropeptide Y receptor in the rat brain [PDF]

open access: bronzeEuropean Journal of Biochemistry, 1984
The specific binding of the chloramine-T iodinated neuropeptide Y (125I-NPY) to membranes from rat cerebral cortex was investigated using equilibrium binding and kinetic methods.

Cloning and Functional Expression of a cDNA Encoding a Human Type 2 Neuropeptide Y Receptor [PDF]

open access: hybridJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1995
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is a 36-amino acid polypeptide that is widely distributed in the central nervous system and periphery. Pharmacological studies have suggested that there are at least three receptor subtypes, Y1, Y2, and Y3.

Role of the Y5 neuropeptide Y receptor in limbic seizures

open access: greenProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 1999
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is an inhibitory neuromodulator expressed abundantly in the central nervous system that is suspected of being an endogenous antiepileptic agent that can control propagation of limbic seizures. Electrophysiological and pharmacological

Neuropeptide F regulates courtship in Drosophila through a male-specific neuronal circuit [PDF]

open access: yeseLife, 2019
Male courtship is provoked by perception of a potential mate. In addition, the likelihood and intensity of courtship are influenced by recent mating experience, which affects sexual drive.

Characterisation of Neuropeptide Y Receptor Subtypes by Synthetic NPY Analogues and by Anti-receptor Antibodies [PDF]

open access: goldMolecules, 2001
Neuropeptide Y (NPY), a 36-mer neuromodulator, binds to the receptors Y1, Y2, Y4 and Y5 with nanomolar affinity. They all belong to the rhodopsin-like G-protein coupled, seven transmembrane helix spanning receptors.

Central Administration of BIBP3226, Neuropeptide Y (NPY) Y1 Receptor Antagonist, does not Inhibit Fasting- and NPY-Induced Food Intake in Neonatal Chicks

open access: bronzeThe Journal of Poultry Science, 2001
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is known to be an essential orexigenic signal in mammalian and avian brain. Since NPY receptors in the avian brain have not been clarified, to determine whether Y1 receptor or Y1-like receptor(s) mediates the orexigenic effect of NPY

Functional correlates of positional and gender-specific renal asymmetry in drosophila [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Accordingly, the physical asymmetry of the tubules in the body cavity is directly adaptive. Now that the detailed machinery underlying internal asymmetry is starting to be delineated, our work invites the investigation, not just of tissues in isolation ...

Neuropeptide Y/Y5 Receptor Pathway Stimulates Neuroblastoma Cell Motility Through RhoA Activation

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) has been implicated in the regulation of cellular motility under various physiological and pathological conditions, including cancer dissemination. Yet, the exact signaling pathways leading to these effects remain unknown.

Correlations of Gene Variants LEP rs2167270, LEPR rs1137100, GHRL rs696217, rs27647, and NPY rs16147 with Obesity and Adolescent Eating Behavior: Case-Control Study

open access: yesВопросы современной педиатрии, 2022
Background. Childhood obesity is topical global healthcare issue. The correlations between variable regions of genes encoding leptin and its receptor, ghrelin and neuropeptide Y, and the risk of obesity development in children have not been confirmed ...

Rabbit Annulus Fibrosus Cells Express Neuropeptide Y, Which Is Influenced by Mechanical and Inflammatory Stress [PDF]

open access: yesNeurospine, 2020
Objective Rabbit annulus fibrosus (AF) cells were exposed to isolated or combined mechanical and inflammatory stress to examine the expression of neuropeptide Y (NPY).
