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 ...

Gut‐microbiota‐brain Axis and post‐traumatic epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract There has been growing evidence that perturbations in gut‐microbiota‐brain axis (GMBA) are involved in mechanisms of chronic sequelae of traumatic brain injury (TBI). This review discusses the connection between GMBA and post‐traumatic epilepsy (PTE), the latter being a common outcome of TBI.

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 ...

A role of corazonin receptor in larval-pupal transition and pupariation in the oriental fruit fly Bactrocera dorsalis (Hendel) (Diptera: Tephritidae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Corazonin (Crz) is a neuropeptide hormone, but also a neuropeptide modulator that is internally released within the CNS, and it has a widespread distribution in insects with diverse physiological functions.

Oxytocin Amplifies Negative Response to Ambiguity in Adolescent Females With and Without Eating Disorders

open access: yesEuropean Eating Disorders Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Eating disorders (ED) typically emerge in adolescence, a critical period for brain development and peer bonding. Interpersonal difficulties—particularly social anxiety—frequently co‐occur with ED. Oxytocin is a neuropeptide that modulates social cognition and linked to prosocial effects.

Structurally and Functionally Adaptive Biomimetic Periosteum: Materials, Fabrication, and Construction Strategies

open access: yesExploration, EarlyView.
Schematic illustration of structural and functional biomimicry. The upper part shows BP with various structures such as monolayered, surface‐microstructural, bilayered and multilayered. The bottom part exhibits BP with different functions including immune regulation, drugs/cells/factors/ions loading, as well as bioelectrical stimulation and ...

PACAP and migraine headache: immunomodulation of neural circuits in autonomic ganglia and brain parenchyma. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The discovery that intravenous (IV) infusions of the neuropeptide PACAP-38 (pituitary adenylyl cyclase activating peptide-38) induced delayed migraine-like headaches in a large majority of migraine patients has resulted in considerable excitement in ...

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

open access: yesFood Safety and Health, EarlyView.
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 ...

Research progress on the mechanisms of pain empathy

open access: yesIbrain, EarlyView.
This article is related to the graphical research progress of pain empathy, starting with the description of the pain matrix and mirror neurons. Based on the pain matrix and mirror neurons, pain empathy results from the combined action of brain regions such as the anterior cingulate cortex, insula, prefrontal cortex, and amygdala and regulatory ...
