Effects of Nifedipine on Renal and Cardiovascular Responses to Neuropeptide Y in Anesthetized Rats
Molecules, 2021 Neuropeptide Y (NPY) acts via multiple receptor subtypes termed Y1, Y2 and Y5. While Y1 receptor-mediated effects, e.g., in the vasculature, are often sensitive to inhibitors of L-type Ca2+ channels such as nifedipine, little is known about the role of ...

Identifying functional populations among the interneurons in laminae I-III of the spinal dorsal horn [PDF]
, 2017 The spinal dorsal horn receives input from primary afferent axons, which terminate in a modality-specific fashion in different laminae. The incoming somatosensory information is processed through complex synaptic circuits involving excitatory and ...

Neurobiology of Disease, 2012 We recently demonstrated that recombinant adeno-associated viral vector-induced hippocampal overexpression of neuropeptide Y receptor, Y2, exerts a seizure-suppressant effect in kindling and kainate-induced models of epilepsy in rats.

Neuropeptide Y receptors in a protozoaStylonychia mytilus
Chinese Science Bulletin, 1998 Radio ligand binding assays(RLBA) were used to study neuropeptide Y (NPY) receptors in a protozoaStylonychia mytilus. The experimental results showed that 2–3 × 103/mLStylonychia cells incubated in Pringsheim solution which contained3H-NPY could specifically bind3H-NPY and concoraitantly present saturable characteristic.

Nano‐Anesthetics Regulate Neuro‐Immune Interaction for Treating Neuropathic Pain
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Ce‐UiO‐66‐Bupivacaine (CUB) demonstrates triple therapeutic innovation: 1) Sustained analgesia with ROS scavenging synergistically resolves neuropathic pain; 2) Microglia/astrocyte polarization switch reprograms the pro‐regenerative immune microenvironment; 3) CGRP‐TSP‐1 axis activation couples inflammation suppression to axon regeneration, defining a ...

An opioid-like system regulating feeding behavior in C. elegans [PDF]
, 2015 Neuropeptides are essential for the regulation of appetite. Here we show that neuropeptides could regulate feeding in mutants that lack neurotransmission from the motor neurons that stimulate feeding muscles. We identified nlp-24 by an RNAi screen of 115

Alcoholism: Clinical and Experimental Research, 2008 BACKGROUND Several lines of evidence in both human and animal studies suggest that variation in neuropeptide Y (NPY) or its receptor genes (NPY1R, NPY2R and NPY5R) is associated with alcohol dependence as well as alcohol withdrawal symptoms.
