Galanin-neuropeptide Y (NPY) interactions in central cardiovascular control: involvement of the NPY Y receptor subtype.
The interactions between neuropeptide Y (NPY), specifically through NPY Y(1) and Y(2) receptor subtypes, and galanin [GAL(1-29)] have been analysed at the cardiovascular level. The cardiovascular effects of intracisternal coinjections of GAL(1-29) with NPY or NPY Y(1) or Y(2) agonists, as well as quantitative receptor autoradiography of the binding characteristics of NPY Y(1) and Y(2) receptor ...
متن کاملTherapeutic potential of neuropeptide Y (NPY) receptor ligands
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is widely distributed in the human body and contributes to a vast number of physiological processes. Since its discovery, NPY has been implicated in metabolic regulation and, although interest in its role in central mechanisms related to food intake and obesity has somewhat diminished, the topic remains a strong focus of research concerning NPY signalling. In addition, a nu...
متن کاملTargeted Deletion of Neuropeptide Y (NPY) Modulates Experimental Colitis
BACKGROUND Neurogenic inflammation plays a major role in the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). We examined the role of neuropeptide Y (NPY) and neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) in modulating colitis. METHODS Colitis was induced by administration of dextran sodium sulphate (3% DSS) or streptomycin pre-treated Salmonella typhimurium (S.T.) in wild type (WT) and NPY (NPY(-/-...
متن کاملDoes neuropeptide Y (NPY) mediate the effects of psychotropic drugs?
Although several studies have summarized the effects of neuropeptide Y (NPY) in the central nervous system, its role in psychopharmacotherapy has not been reviewed in detail. For the last few years, there has been an increase in the number of studies on the suggested role of NPY in the benefits of treatment for mental disorders. Our review focuses on the possible involvement of altered NPY syst...
متن کاملNeuropeptide Y (NPY) synthesis in lymphoblasts and increased plasma NPY in pediatric B-cell precursor leukemia.
Neuropeptide Y (NPY), a regulatory peptide in both the central and peripheral nervous systems, has recently been found in neuroendocrine tumors as well as in the bone marrow of rat and certain autoimmune mice, but not in human bone marrow. To investigate a possible role for NPY in the human hematopoietic system, we have prospectively studied NPY-like immunoreactivity in plasma (P-NPY-LI) and NP...
