Diet transition to a high-fat diet for 3 weeks reduces brain omega-3-fatty acid levels, alters BDNF signaling and induces anxiety & depression-like behavior in adult rats [PDF]
Background: The consumption of diets high in calories and low in nutrient value is becoming increasingly common in modern society, which can lead to metabolic disorders like diabetes and obesity, and potentially to psychiatric disorders.

A stress hormone sends mixed signals to immune cells, according to a study on page 1527. Wheway and colleagues show that neuropeptide Y (NPY) activates antigen-presenting cells (APCs) but shuts off T cells. If correctly sequenced, these activities would both turn on and then limit certain immune responses.NPY is an abundant neuropeptide that is ...

The cumulative effect of EA analgesia is partially attributed to the activation of EA‐TRAPed cells in ACC. Multiple EA sessions and single EA sessions activated different neuronal populations in the ACC. The enhanced analgesic effect of multiple EA sessions may be attributed to an increase in the proportion of GABAergic neurons within the ACC. Abstract

Deficiency of neuropeptide Y attenuates neointima formation after vascular injury in mice
Background Restenosis after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) limits therapeutic revascularization. Neuropeptide Y (NPY), co-stored and co-released with the sympathetic nervous system, is involved in this process, but its exact role and underlying

Objective An enduring puzzle in many inherited neurological disorders is the late onset of symptoms despite expression of function‐impairing mutant protein early in life. We examined the basis for onset of impairment in spinocerebellar ataxia type 6 (SCA6), a canonical late‐onset neurodegenerative ataxia which results from a polyglutamine expansion in ...

Exposure of chicks to a high ambient temperature (HT) has previously been shown to increase neuropeptide Y (NPY) mRNA expression in the brain. Furthermore, it was found that NPY has anti‐stress functions in heat‐exposed fasted chicks.

NPY mediates ATP-induced neuroproliferation in adult mouse olfactory epithelium
In the CNS, ATP is released upon injury and promotes neuroproliferation via purinergic receptors. In the olfactory epithelium, ATP promotes the synthesis and release of neurotrophic factor NPY in neonates and induces neuroproliferation in neonatal and ...

Inflammatory Response as a Mechanism of Perinatal Programming: Long-term Impact on Pulmonary and Renal Function? [PDF]
RATIONALE: Temporal changes in the fetal environment, such as malnutrition and placental insufficiency induce intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) and lead to a permanent changes of physiological processes later in life.

A [3]Rotaxane Containing {Ti7Ga} Rings Linking CuII: Synthesis, Structure, and Spectroscopic Studies
Extended hybrid inorganic‐organic [2]‐ and [3]‐rotaxanes are reported based on heterometallic rings with threads that link CuII complexes; the crystal structures are reported, and the solution behavior is investigated by double electron electron resonance spectroscopy methods.
