NPY and bone

2006
Genetic models such as Y receptor knockout and leptin knockout mice have begun to reveal some of the individual functions of the different Y receptors. The finding that some of these receptors appear to be involved in the regulation of bone formation via a hypothalamic relay, has revealed not only a previously unknown and novel function of the Y ...

NPY and Cardiac Diseases

Current Topics in Medicinal Chemistry, 2007
Hypertension-induced left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), along with ischemic heart disease, result in LV remodeling as part of a continuum that often leads to congestive heart failure. The neurohormonal model has been used to underpin many treatment strategies, but optimal outcomes have not been achieved.

Parasites flicking the NPY gene on the host's switchboard: why NPY?

The FASEB Journal, 1999
ABSTRACT It was investigated whether up‐regulation of the NPY gene by the schistosome Trichobilharzia ocellata in its snail host Lymnaea stagnalis redirects the host's energy flows.

Interactions between NPY and its receptor: assessment using anti-NPY antibodies

Regulatory Peptides, 1994
The present data show that monoclonal antibodies (NPY02, NPY03, NPY04, NPY05) directed against 4 distinct epitopes on NPY may have different actions on NPY binding and NPY-induced cellular responses. NPY02 and NPY05 recognize the 11-24 and 32-36 amidated form of NPY, respectively.

Neuropeptide Y (Npy) and Npy Receptors in The Rat Pineal Gland

2005
NPY is considered to play an important role in pineal function, because it is co-stored with the dominant pineal transmitter noradrenaline. However, little evidence from the literature suggests that NPY alone is a strong regulator of melatonin synthesis or secretion and it is therefore more likely that NPY modulates noradrenergic neurotransmission in ...

Distinction of NPY receptors in vitro and in vivo. II. Differential effects of NPY and NPY-(18-36)

American Journal of Physiology-Heart and Circulatory Physiology, 1990
We have studied the hemodynamic effects of neuropeptide Y (NPY) and its COOH-terminal fragment NPY-(18–36) in conscious rats. Intra-arterial injection of NPY rapidly elevated systemic vascular resistance (SVR), which remained high for greater than 30 min. Cardiac output (CO) decreased, and it remained low for greater than 30 min.

NPY regulation of bone remodelling

Neuropeptides, 2009
Neuropeptide Y (NPY), a classic neuronal regulator of energy homeostasis, is now also known to be involved in the control of bone homeostasis. Of the five known Y receptors through which the NPY family of ligands signals, the Y1 and Y2 receptors have so far been implicated in the control of osteoblast activity and thus bone formation. Analysis of brain

Spinal mechanisms of NPY analgesia

Peptides, 2007
We review previously published data, and present some new data, indicating that spinal application of neuropeptide Y (NPY) reduces behavioral and neurophysiological signs of acute and chronic pain. In models of acute pain, early behavioral studies showed that spinal (intrathecal) administration of NPY and Y2 receptor agonists decrease thermal ...

Neuropeptide Y (NPY) and NPY Y1 receptor in periodontal health and disease

Archives of Oral Biology, 2009
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) coordinates inflammation and bone metabolism which are central to the pathogenesis of periodontitis. The present study was designed to determine whether NPY was quantifiable in human gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) and to test the null hypothesis that GCF levels of NPY were the same in periodontal health and disease.
