NPY mediates ATP-induced neuroproliferation in adult mouse olfactory epithelium

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2010
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 ...

NPY receptors in human cancer: a review of current knowledge

open access: yes, 2007
Many peptide hormone receptors are over-expressed in human cancer, permitting an in vivo targeting of tumors for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. NPY receptors are novel and promising candidates in this field. Using in vitro receptor autoradiography,

KIF1A‐Mediated Axonal Transport of Netrin‐1 in iPSC‐Derived Human Forebrain Neurons

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Netrin‐1 is a secreted laminin‐like protein that functions as a guidance cue for axon pathfinding in development. Netrin‐1 also modulates synapse formation in developing neurons and long‐term potentiation in mature neurons. Netrin‐1 is expressed in human neurons; however, its intracellular distribution and trafficking have not been assessed ...

NPY-induced overfeeding suppresses hypothalamic NPY mRNA expression: potential roles of plasma insulin and leptin [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
To test the hypothesis that NPY-induced overfeeding activates compensatory responses that inhibit hypothalamic NPY gene expression, we investigated the effect of chronically administered neuropeptide Y (NPY) on plasma hormones involved in energy balance ...

Goofy/123Cre lineage tracing differentiates olfactory and vomeronasal neurons from GnRH‐1 and terminal nerve neurons during neuronal migration and reveals additional olfactory placode‐derived cells in the brain

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract The olfactory placode (OP) generates a broad array of chemosensory neurons in the nasal region, including olfactory sensory neurons, vomeronasal sensory neurons, neurons of the septal organ, and Grueneberg ganglion. During invagination, the OP also generates migratory neuronal populations, including gonadotropin‐releasing hormone‐1 (GnRH‐1 ...

Investigation of Neuropeptide Y as a metabolic marker and its effects on adipose vasculature and brainstem astrocytes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Subsets of morbidly obese patients do not appear to exhibit the expected comorbidities, as well as the fact that heightened sympathetic nervous system (SNS) activity has been known to affect metabolism.

High expression of NPY receptors in the human testis

open access: yes, 2011
NPY receptors represent novel molecular therapeutic targets in cancer and obesity. However, the extent of NPY receptor expression in normal human tissues is poorly investigated.

Cortical Thickness and Appetite Hormones in Adolescent Obesity and Binge Eating Disorder: A Comparative Study

open access: yesInternational Journal of Eating Disorders, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This study examined cortical thickness and appetite‐regulating hormones—neuropeptide Y (NPY) and ghrelin—to better understand the neurobiological mechanisms underlying binge eating disorder (BED) and obesity in adolescence. We compared adolescents with BED and obesity, adolescents with obesity without BED, and healthy controls (HCs),

Higher Serum Neuropeptide Y Levels Are Associated with Metabolically Unhealthy Obesity in Obese Chinese Adults: A Cross-Sectional Study

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 2020
Objective. Neuropeptide Y (NPY), an orexigenic peptide known to cause hyperphagia, has been involved in the occurrence and development of obesity. However, differences in the distribution of serum NPY levels in obese phenotypes (including metabolically ...

The genetic architecture of epilepsy across molecular mechanisms and clinical heterogeneity

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Epilepsy comprises a highly heterogeneous group of neurological disorders unified by a persistent predisposition to recurrent seizures, yet driven by remarkably diverse genetic, molecular, and network‐level mechanisms. Advances in genomic technologies have revealed that epilepsy arises from a multilayered genetic architecture encompassing rare
