The effect of insulin receptor deletion in neuropeptide Y neurons on hippocampal dependent cognitive function in aging mice [PDF]
Insulin is known to act in the central nervous system to regulate several physiological and behavioural outcomes, including energy balance, glucose homeostasis and cognitive functioning. However, the neuronal populations through which insulin enhances

Sympathetic nervous system catecholamines and neuropeptide Y neurotransmitters are upregulated in human NAFLD and modulate the fibrogenic function of hepatic stellate cells. [PDF]
Sympathetic nervous system (SNS) signalling regulates murine hepatic fibrogenesis through effects on hepatic stellate cells (HSC), and obesity-related hypertension with SNS activation accelerates progression of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD ...

Abstract The International League Against Epilepsy/American Epilepsy Society (ILAE/AES) Joint Translational Task Force initiated the TASK3 working group to create common data elements (CDEs) for various aspects of preclinical epilepsy research studies, which could help improve the standardization of experimental designs.

Ancient grandeur of the vertebrate neuropeptide Y system shown by the coelacanth Latimeria chalumnae
The neuropeptide Y (NPY) family receptors and peptides have previously been characterized in several tetrapods, teleost fishes and in a holocephalan cartilaginous fish.

Consummatory responses to taste stimuli are modulated by visceral signals processed in the caudal nucleus of the solitary tract (cNST) and ventrolateral medulla. On the basis of decerebrate preparations, this modulation can occur through local brain stem

A Promising Therapeutic Target for Metabolic Diseases: Neuropeptide Y Receptors in Humans
Human neuropeptide Y (hNPY) is one of the most widely expressed neurotransmitters in the human central and peripheral nervous systems. It consists of 36 highly conserved amino acid residues, and was first isolated from the porcine hypothalamus in 1982 ...

Interactions of zebrafish peptide YYb with the neuropeptide Y-family receptors Y4, Y7, Y8a and Y8b
The neuropeptide Y (NPY) system influences numerous physiological functions including feeding behavior, endocrine regulation, and cardiovascular regulation. In jawed vertebrates it consists of 3-4 peptides and 4-7 receptors.

NPY receptor subtype in the rabbit isolated ileum [PDF]
The purpose of this work was to verify the hypothesis that the rabbit ileum is a selective preparation for the NPY Y5 receptor by using new selective antagonists recently synthesized. Spontaneous contractions of the rabbit isolated ileum were recorded and binding experiments were performed in cells expressing the human NPY Y1, Y2, Y4 or Y5 receptor ...
