The Role of Neuropeptide Y in Cardiovascular Health and Disease

Frontiers in Physiology, 2018
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is an abundant sympathetic co-transmitter, widely found in the central and peripheral nervous systems and with diverse roles in multiple physiological processes.

Metabolic and serotonergic modulation of hypothalamic arcuate nucleus neurones in vitro [PDF]

1. The effects of glucose on the electrophysiological properties of rat hypothalamic arcuate nucleus (ARC) neurones were investigated. Neurones were recorded in 10 mM (hyperglycaemic) and 2 mM (euglycaemic) glucose-containing aCSF.

Characterization of Receptor Types for Neuropeptide Y and Related Peptides

The structurally related peptides neuropeptide Y (NPY), peptide YY (PYY), and pancreatic polypeptide (PP) are neuronal and/ or endocrine messengers that are involved in a variety of physiological processes. NPY and PYY are able to evoke potent biological

Neuropeptide Y receptors: a promising target for cancer imaging and therapy.

, 2015
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) was first identified from porcine brain in 1982, and plays its biological functions in humans through NPY receptors (Y1, Y2, Y4 and Y5).

The sensory system acts with a neuromedin U signaling pathway to mediate food type-dependent effects on lifespan [PDF]

, 2010
In order to survive, the animal uses its sensory system to interpret the complexity of its environment. Interestingly, a subset of sensory neurons, which function in taste or olfaction, has been found to influence the lifespan of C.

Molecular mechanism of prolactin-releasing peptide recognition and signaling via its G protein-coupled receptor

Cell Discovery
Prolactin-releasing peptide (PrRP) is an RF-amide neuropeptide that binds and activates its cognate G protein-coupled receptor, prolactin-releasing peptide receptor (PrRPR), also known as GPR10.
