Neuropeptide Y receptor in the rat brain [PDF]

European 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]

Journal 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

Proceedings 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]

eLife, 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.

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

The 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

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

Molecules, 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.

High-affinity neuropeptide Y receptor antagonists. [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1995
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is one of the most abundant peptide transmitters in the mammalian brain. In the periphery it is costored and coreleased with norepinephrine from sympathetic nerve terminals. However, the physiological functions of this peptide remain

Neuropeptide Y receptors: How to get subtype selectivity [PDF]

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2013
The neuropeptide Y system is a multireceptor/multiligand system consisting of four receptors in humans (hY1, hY2, hY4, hY5) and three agonists (NPY, PYY, PP) that activate these receptors with different potency.

Evolution of neuropeptide Y/RFamide-like receptors in nematodes

Heliyon
The Neuropeptide Y/RFamide-like receptors belong to the Rhodopsin-like G protein-coupled receptors G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and are involved in functions such as locomotion, feeding and reproduction.
