Neuropeptide Y modulates the electrical activity of subfornical organ neurons [PDF]

Current Research in Neurobiology
The subfornical organ (SFO) is a sensory circumventricular organ, lacking a blood-brain barrier. It is well-recognized as a key center for detection and integration of osmotic, ionic and hormonal signals for maintenance of hydromineral balance and ...

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.

Differential suppression of seizures via Y2 and Y5 neuropeptide Y receptors

Neurobiology of Disease, 2005
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) prominently inhibits epileptic seizures in different animal models. The NPY receptors mediating this effect remain controversial partially due to lack of highly selective agonists and antagonists.

Differential Changes in Expression of Stress- and Metabolic-related Neuropeptides in the Rat Hypothalamus during Morphine Dependence and Withdrawal [PDF]

, 2013
Chronic morphine treatment and naloxone precipitated morphine withdrawal activates stress-related brain circuit and results in significant changes in food intake, body weight gain and energy metabolism.

Unusually persistent Gαi-signaling of the neuropeptide Y2 receptor depletes cellular Gi/o pools and leads to a Gi-refractory state

Cell Communication and Signaling, 2020
Background A sensitive balance between receptor activation and desensitization is crucial for cellular homeostasis. Like many other GPCR, the human neuropeptide Y2 receptor (hY2R) undergoes ligand dependent activation and internalization into ...
