Neuropeptide Y-Graphene Oxide Complexes Inhibit Amygdala NPY-Receptor Expressing Glutamatergic Pathways and Selectively Remove Aversive Memory In Vivo. [PDF]

Adv Sci (Weinh)
A graphene oxide nanocarrier presents neuropeptide Y specifically to NPY receptor‐expressing pathways in the amygdala, whose activation selectively suppresses aversive memory formation, without modulating anxiety responses. This circuit‐restricted drug release strategy may impact future design of neuropsychiatric therapies with limited off‐target ...

Structure and function of sea urchin neuropeptides [PDF]

, 2010
PhDThe subject of this thesis is the identification and functional characterization of sea urchin neuropeptides. Neuropeptides are important mediators of neural signalling in all known animals with a nervous system, including bilaterians, ctenophorans ...

Sympathetic Nervous System Catecholamines and Neuropeptide Y Neurotransmitters Are Upregulated in Human NAFLD and Modulate the Fibrogenic Function of Hepatic Stellate Cells [PDF]

, 2013
Background 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 ...

Neuropeptide Y receptors in GtoPdb v.2023.1 [PDF]

, 2023
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) receptors (nomenclature as agreed by the NC-IUPHAR Subcommittee on Neuropeptide Y Receptors [158]) are activated by the endogenous peptides neuropeptide Y, neuropeptide Y-(3-36), peptide YY, PYY-(3-36) and pancreatic polypeptide (PP).

Role of neurotrophins and neuropeptides in Genetic Absence Epilepsy Rats from Strasbourg (GAERS) : a model for human generalized absence seizures [PDF]

, 2010
Several studies have shown that neurotrophins and neuropeptides contribute to epileptogenesis but their impact on idiopathic generalized epilepsies is not yet elucidated.

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

, 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.

Investigations on neuropeptide Y and histamine receptors by fluorescence-based and radiochemical methods [PDF]

, 2011
In the last three decades, a large amount of experimental data (for example Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) at fluorescently labelled receptors) supported the hypothesis of the dimerization of G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCR), including ...

Characterization of Neuropeptide S (NPS) in view of its potential as a novel anxiolytic therapy for anxiety disorders [PDF]

, 2012
Anxiety disorders, such as posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), are characterized by a high prevalence and debilitating symptoms. However, the current first-line treatment for these conditions, which consists of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors ...

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Pharmacological and neurobiological studies on Neuropeptide S and its receptor [PDF]

, 2011
Neuropeptide S (NPS) is the last neuropeptide identified via reverse pharmacology techniques. NPS selectively binds and activates a previously orphan GPCR, now named NPSR, producing intracellular Ca2+ mobilization and stimulation of cAMP levels ...
