Somato-dendritic localization and signaling by leptin receptors in hypothalamic POMC and AgRP neurons. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Leptin acts via neuronal leptin receptors to control energy balance. Hypothalamic pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) and agouti-related peptide (AgRP)/Neuropeptide Y (NPY)/GABA neurons produce anorexigenic and orexigenic neuropeptides and neurotransmitters, and

Actions of NPY, and Its Y1 and Y2 Receptors on Pulsatile Growth Hormone Secretion during the Fed and Fasted State [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Neuroscience, 2014
The hypothalamic NPY system plays an important role in regulating food intake and energy expenditure. Different biological actions of NPY are assigned to NPY receptor subtypes.

Neuropeptide Y neurons mediate opioid-induced itch by disinhibiting GRP-GRPR microcircuits in the spinal cord [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications
Itch is a common side effect of opioid analgesics. The specific neurons mediating opioid-induced itch are still debated, and the mechanistic neuronal circuits remain elusive.

Differential Changes in Expression of Stress- and Metabolic-related Neuropeptides in the Rat Hypothalamus during Morphine Dependence and Withdrawal [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Chronic morphine treatment and naloxone precipitated morphine withdrawal activates stress-related brain circuit and results in significant changes in food intake, body weight gain and energy metabolism.

Neuropeptide Y enhances olfactory mucosa responses to odorant in hungry rats. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) plays an important role in regulating appetite and hunger in vertebrates. In the hypothalamus, NPY stimulates food intake under the control of the nutritional status.
