Neuropeptide Y and ATP interact to control renovascular resistance in the rat.
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) and ATP are cotransmitters of norepinephrine (NE). Modulation of ATP-mediated purinergic neurotransmission by NPY was investigated in rat perfused kidney. Beta,gamma-Methylene-L-ATP (beta,gamma-mATP; 1.0 to 1.5 microM, n = 8), NE (0.1 microM, n = 8), and NPY (0.1 microM, n = 14) increased perfusion pressure by maximally 12 +/- 1, 17 +/- 2, and 9 +/- 1 mmHg, respectively. In...
متن کاملSynthesis, labeling and quality control of a new Neuropeptide Y analogue for diagnosis of breast tumors
Introduction: Over expression of selected peptide receptors in human tumors has been shown to represent clinically relevant targets for cancer diagnosis and therapy. The aim of this work was to investigate Neuropeptide Y (NPY) as a new radiopharmaceutical for diagnosis of breast cancer. Methods: A neuropeptide Y analogues with Y1 receptor preference and agonistic p...
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...
متن کاملNeuropeptide Y and neurovascular control in skeletal muscle and skin.
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is a ubiquitous peptide with multiple effects on energy metabolism, reproduction, neurogenesis, and emotion. In addition, NPY is an important sympathetic neurotransmitter involved in neurovascular regulation. Although early studies suggested that the vasoactive effects of NPY were limited to periods of high stress, there is growing evidence for the involvement of NPY on bas...
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...
