Characterization of the human type 2 neuropeptide Y receptor gene (NPY2R) and localization to the chromosome 4q region containing the type 1 neuropeptide Y receptor gene.

open access: yesGenomics, 1996
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) signals through a family of G-protein-coupled receptors present in the brain and sympathetic neurons. To further our understanding of the genetic elements involved in the regulation of NPY receptor expression, we have cloned and ...

The upside of epilepsy: Theories of an evolutionary paradox

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract The persistence of common, heritable conditions, like epilepsy, that are associated with reduced reproductive fitness is an evolutionary paradox. Endogenous analgesic, anti‐depressant, and inflammatory mechanisms able to repair compromised functions can offer advantages in unexpected crises.

Antidepressant-like effects induced by galanin 2/neuropeptide Y Y1 heterodimers in the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Previously, we have described the Galanin (GAL) and Neuropeptide Y Y1 (NPYY1) interactions through GAL receptor 2 and NPYY1 receptor 1 (GALR2/NPYY1R) heterodimers in the Dentate Gyrus (DG) of the Hippocampus, using autoradiographic, in situ ...

Oat Bran Supplementation Improves Glucose Metabolism, Food Addiction, and Gut Microbiota in Rats With High‐Fat Diet‐Induced Obesity

open access: yesFood Frontiers, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Oat bran (OB), a byproduct of the oat milling process, is a nutrient‐dense cereal cultivated in cool, dry mountainous regions and is known for its potential health benefits. To explore its obesity‐alleviating effects and the underlying mechanisms, we examined the influence of OB on glucose metabolism, appetite‐regulating hormones, gut ...

Inhibition of Y1 receptor signaling improves islet transplant outcome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Failure to secrete sufficient quantities of insulin is a pathological feature of type-1 and type-2 diabetes, and also reduces the success of islet cell transplantation.

Exploring the Molecular Pathways Underlying the Anti‐Diabetic Effects of Millets

open access: yesFood Safety and Health, Volume 3, Issue 3, Page 300-314, July 2025.
Millet consumption may modulate gluconeogenesis and glycolysis, enhance glucose transporter activity, increase leptin levels, inhibit the NF‐κB pathway, and mitigate oxidative and nitrosative stress. ABSTRACT Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a metabolic disorder characterized by hyperglycemic conditions resulting from inadequate insulin production or ...

Photoaffinity labeling coupled to MS to identify peptide biological partners: Secondary reactions, for better or for worse?

open access: yesMass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
Abstract Affinity photolabeling is a smart method to study noncovalent and transient interactions and provide a submolecular picture of the contacts between interacting partners. In this review, we will focus on the identification of peptide partners using photoaffinity labeling coupled to mass spectrometry in different contexts such as in vitro with a
