The Anti-Apoptotic Role of Neurotensin
The neuropeptide, neurotensin, exerts numerous biological functions, including an efficient anti-apoptotic role, both in the central nervous system and in the periphery.

Decreased neurotensin levels as a biomarker in resistant hypertension
Objective: Although neurotensin is found throughout the body including cardiovascular structures, the correlation of plasma neurotensin levels with resistant hypertension (RH) has never been examined.

The hindbrain-hypothalamic noradrenergic pathway controls homeostatic food intake but not cue-induced appetitive behaviors. [PDF]
Abstract Nucleus of the solitary tract (NTS) A2 noradrenergic neurons are critical in regulating food intake. In addition to their well‐established role in homeostatic feeding, there is also evidence indicating their contribution in non‐homeostatic feeding behaviors. However, whether their control of homeostatic and non‐homeostatic feeding behaviors is

ObjectiveNeurotensin and xenin are two closely related anorexigenic neuropeptides synthesized in the small intestine that exert diverse peripheral and central functions. Both act via the neurotensin-1-receptor. In animal models of obesity reduced central

Regulation of fat-stimulated neurotensin secretion in healthy subjects [PDF]
CONTEXT: Cholecystokinin (CCK) and neurotensin are stimulated during meal intake by the presence of fat in the small intestine. The sequence of events suggests that fat hydrolysis is crucial for triggering the release.

Neurotensin receptors in GtoPdb v.2023.1 [PDF]
Neurotensin receptors (nomenclature as recommended by NC-IUPHAR [39]) are activated by the endogenous tridecapeptide neurotensin (pGlu-Leu-Tyr-Glu-Asn-Lys-Pro-Arg-Arg-Pro-Tyr-Ile-Leu) derived from a precursor (NTS, 30990), which also generates neuromedin

During cold exposure, white adipose tissue can remodel to dissipate energy as heat under cold similar to thermogenic brown adipose tissue. This “browning” and the regulation of body temperature is under the control of neural and hormonal signaling.

Heterodimerization of apelin receptor and neurotensin receptor 1 induces phosphorylation of ERK1/2and cell proliferationviaGαq-mediated mechanism [PDF]
Dimerization of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) is crucial for receptor function including agonist affinity, efficacy, trafficking and specificity of signal transduction, including G protein coupling.

Neurotensin receptors in pancreatic ductal carcinomas. [PDF]
BACKGROUND The frequent expression of neurotensin receptors (NT-R) in primaries of pancreatic ductal carcinomas has triggered the development of radioactive neurotensin analogs for possible in vivo targeting of these tumors. However, the complete lack
