Balasubramaniam, A. Neuropeptide Y family of hormones: Receptor subtypes and antagonists.
Peptides 18(3) 445–457, 1997.—Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is the most abundant peptide …

Epinephrine and amylin stimulate glycogenolysis, glycolysis, and Na + -K + -ATPase activity
in skeletal muscle. However, it is not known whether these hormones stimulate glycolytic …

Neuropeptide Y (NPY) family of hormones exhibits a wide spectrum of central and peripheral
activities mediated by six G-protein coupled receptor subtypes denoted as Y 1 , Y 2 , Y 3 , Y …

Porcine neuropeptide Y (pNPY) administered into the third ventricle of the brain is known to
elicit a powerful feeding response in steroid-treated ovariectomized and intact male rats. The …

GR231118, BW1911U90, Bis(31/31′){[Cys 31 , Trp 32 , Nva 34 ] neuropeptide Y(31–36)} (T-190)
and [Trp–Arg–Nva–Arg–Tyr] 2 -NH 2 (T-241) are peptide analogs of the C-terminus of …

Although ghrelin and GHRP-2 have been shown to inhibit skeletal muscle proteolysis in rats
with burn injury, the effects of des-acyl ghrelin (DAG) have not been reported. In this paper, …

We have previously shown [Cys-Trp-Arg-Nva-Arg-Tyr-NH 2 ] 2 , 1, to be a moderately selective
neuropeptide Y (NPY) Y 4 receptor agonist. Toward improving the selectivity and potency …

Normal breast tissue mainly expresses the neuropeptide Y (NPY) Y2 receptor whereas primary
human breast carcinomas express the Y1 receptor (Y1R) subtype. We hypothesized that …

Neuropeptide Y (NPY) induced reentry of differentiated rat neonatal and adult cardiomyocytes
into the cell cycle. NPY also induced differentiation of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal …

Overexpression of neuropeptide Y (NPY) and its receptor system has been reported in
various types of cancers. NPY Y5 receptor (Y5R) has been implicated in cell growth and …
