In Focus Neuropeptide Y
NEUROPEPTIDE Y (NPY) was identified as a neuropeptide that is colocalized and coreleased with the neurotransmitter norepinephrine from sympathetic nerve terminals. In this regard, a large body of research on NPY focused on its role in autonomic physiology and pharmacology as a potentiator of the postsynaptic actions of norepinephrine. However, with the increased understanding of the genes and t...
متن کاملlack of correlation between plasma neuropeptide y and typical and atypical febrile seizures.
it is known that neuropeptide y which is widely distributed throughout the central nervous system is able to prevent seizures in animals. there are limited studies about the role of neuropeptide y in febrile seizures. this study was conducted to evaluate the association between plasma neuropeptide y level and febrile seizures in children. seventy six patients with typical and atypical febrile s...

متن کاملGenetic comparison of seizure control by norepinephrine and neuropeptide Y.
Epilepsy is a disease of neuronal hyperexcitability, and pharmacological and genetic studies have identified norepinephrine (NE) and neuropeptide Y (NPY) as important endogenous regulators of neuronal excitability. Both transmitters signal through G-protein-coupled receptors, are expressed either together or separately, and are abundant in brain regions implicated in seizure generation. NPY kno...
متن کاملPlasma Neuropeptide Y Levels in Vasovagal Syncope in Children
BACKGROUND Vasovagal syncope (VVS) is the most common cause of syncope in children. Neuropeptide Y (NPY) plays an important role in the regulation of blood pressure (BP), as well as myocardial contractility. This study aimed to explore the role of plasma NPY in VVS in children. METHODS Fifty-six children who were diagnosed with VVS (VVS group) using head-up tilt test (HUT) and 31 healthy chil...
