Neuropeptides in urology [PDF]
International Urology and Nephrology, 1989 Following a review of the literature for non-cholinergic, non-adrenergic mechanisms that are assumed to play a part in regulating the function of the lower urinary tract, some methods of neuropeptide research are described to determine the actual distribution and concentration of these substances.

Crustaceans have long been used for peptide research. For example, the process of neurosecretion was first formally demonstrated in the crustacean X-organ-sinus gland system, and the first fully characterized invertebrate neuropeptide was from a shrimp.

American Journal of Rhinology, 1998
Sensory, parasympathetic, and sympathetic nerves innervate many structures in airways. The anatomy, histology, and function of these nerves and their varied neurotransmitters will be reviewed. Changes that may contribute to the pathophysiology of allergic, viral, and nonallergic rhinitis will be described.

Neuropeptides in Alzheimer’s Disease: An Update
Current Alzheimer Research, 2019 Neuropeptides are small proteins broadly expressed throughout the central nervous system, which act as neurotransmitters, neuromodulators and neuroregulators.

Neuropeptides play an important role in modulating seizures and epilepsy. Unlike neurotransmitters which operate on a millisecond time-scale, neuropeptides have longer half lives; this leads to modulation of neuronal and network activity over prolonged periods, so contributing to setting the seizure threshold.

Metamorphosin A is a neuropeptide
Roux's Archives of Developmental Biology, 1995A novel biologically active peptide (metamorphosin A, MMA, pEQPGLW.NH2) has recently been described. It was isolated from Anthopleura elegantissima and triggers metamorphosis in Hydractinia echinata. Antibodies directed against the C-terminal part of the molecule immunohistochemically stain neurosensory cells and processes in the anterior part of ...

Abstract Many neuropeptides have recently been identified in human and animal airways. These peptides have potent effects on airway caliber, blood vessels, and secretions, raising the possibility that they may be involved in airway diseases such as asthma.

Neuropeptides are a heterogeneous group of more than 50 molecules that play a role in various cutaneous functions and diseases; they act as neuromodulators, neurotransmitters, neurohormones, and hormones. In the skin, neuropeptides are synthesized locally (i.e., in keratinocytes and in endothelial cells) and are transported by nerve fibers or immune ...

Physiology & Behavior, 2004
The hypothalamus and other brain regions that control energy homeostasis contain neuronal populations that produce specific neuropeptides which have experimental effects on feeding behavior and body weight. Here, we describe examples of neuropeptides that exert 'anabolic' effects, notably stimulation of feeding and increased body weight. Neuropeptide Y

Biotransformation of Neuropeptides
Neuroendocrinology, 2008The ability of neuropeptides to act as precursors for smaller, biologically active fragments is discussed in terms of their biotransformation. This process may involve cleavage of the parent peptide by peptidase enzymes to produce shorter polypeptides with defined biological activity, though other enzymic processes such as sulphation and acetylation ...
