Pancreatic Beta Cells Synthesize Neuropeptide Y and Can Rapidly Release Peptide Co-Transmitters
BACKGROUND In addition to polypeptide hormones, pancreatic endocrine cells synthesize a variety of bioactive molecules including classical transmitters and neuropeptides. While these co-transmitters are thought to play a role in regulating hormone release little is known about how their secretion is regulated. Here I investigate the synthesis and release of neuropeptide Y from pancreatic beta c...
متن کاملNeuropeptide Y in the Adult and Fetal Human Pineal Gland
Neuropeptide Y was isolated from the porcine brain in 1982 and shown to be colocalized with noradrenaline in sympathetic nerve terminals. The peptide has been demonstrated to be present in sympathetic nerve fibers innervating the pineal gland in many mammalian species. In this investigation, we show by use of immunohistochemistry that neuropeptide Y is present in nerve fibers of the adult human...
متن کاملAltered expression of proteoglycans in E1A-immortalized rat fetal intestinal epithelial cells in culture.
Normal and E1A-immortalized rat fetal intestinal epithelial SLC-11 cells were compared for the characteristics of the 35S-labeled proteoglycans isolated from their cell-associated and secreted fractions. In comparison with control cells in primary culture, immortalized SLC-11 cells: (a) secreted larger amounts of radiolabeled proteoglycans; (b) contained larger amounts of membrane-intercalated ...
متن کاملNeuropeptide Y suppresses epileptiform activity in rat hippocampus in vitro.
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) potently inhibits glutamate-mediated synaptic transmission in areas CA1 and CA3 of the rat hippocampus without affecting other synaptic inputs onto principal cells of the hippocampal formation, suggesting that its biological role may include the regulation of excitability within the hippocampus. Here we examine NPY's actions in three in vitro models of epilepsy [0 Mg2+-, pi...
متن کاملAmphetamine-induced effects on neuropeptide Y in the rat brain.
Repeated (+)-amphetamine sulfate (AMPH) administration (5 mg/kg sc twice daily for 6 days and once on day 7) markedly and reversibly decreased (until 96 h after the final dose) neuropeptide Y-like immunoreactivity (NPY-LI) in the rat striatum (caudate-putamen) and nucleus accumbens, and had no effect on NPY-LI in the hippocampus. No significant alterations were detected in the hybridization sig...
