Neuropeptide Y receptor in the rat brain [PDF]
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. The equilibrium binding of 125I-NPY at 37 degrees C was characterized by a Kd value of 0.38 nM. The receptor densities in the cerebral cortex, hypothalamus and cerebellum were

Cloning and Expression of a Novel Neuropeptide Y Receptor [PDF]
The neuropeptide Y family of peptides, which includes neuropeptide Y (NPY), peptide YY (PYY), and pancreatic polypeptide (PP), are found in the central and peripheral nervous system and display a wide array of biological activities. These actions are believed to be mediated through pharmacologically distinct G protein-coupled receptors, and, to date ...

Characterization of vascular neuropeptide Y receptors [PDF]
In the present study we compared neuropeptide Y (NPY) and NPY‐related analogues for their ability to activate or bind to vascular NPY receptors in four experimental set‐ups. Previous results have suggested the existence of different receptor subtypes, Y1 receptors requiring full‐length NPY (1–36) or [Pro34]‐NPY, and Y2 receptors recognizing also N ...

Synthesis of receptor antagonists of neuropeptide Y. [PDF]
We report the synthesis of receptor antagonists of neuropeptide Y (NPY) by a strategy based on synthesis of mixtures of analogs and the subsequent isolation and identification of receptor antagonists from these mixtures. After screening a series of mixtures of NPY analogs by using an NPY antagonist assay, two potent receptor antagonists, designated PYX-

Y1 and Y2 receptors for neuropeptide Y [PDF]
By using monoiodinated radioligands of both intact neuropeptide Y (NPY) and of a long C‐terminal fragment, NPY13–36, two subtypes of binding sites, which differ in affinity and specificity, have been characterized. The Y1 type of binding site, characterized on a human neuroblastoma cell line, MC‐IXC, and a rat pheochromocytoma cell line, PC‐12, binds ...

Influence of Neuropeptide Y and Neuropeptide Y 2 Receptor Variants in Acute Coronary Syndrome [PDF]
Abstract Background The neuropeptide Y (NPY) is one of the most abundant neurotransmitters in the nervous system. NPY acts as a potent stimulator of angiogenesis, inflammation, and adipogenesis, through the NPY 2 receptor (NPY2R). Changes in the NPY signaling pathway have been linked to Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS).
