Stimulation of the sympathetic perimesenteric arterial nerves releases neuropeptide Y potentiating the vasomotor activity of noradrenaline: Involvement of neuropeptide Y-Y1 receptors
(1997)
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) appears to be involved in the sympathetic regulation of vascular tone. To assess the putative role of NPY in mesenteric circulation, the release and biological effect of NPY were examined after electrical ...
Glucocorticoids are required for meal-induced changes in the expression of hypothalamic neuropeptides
(CHURCHILL LIVINGSTONEEDINBURGH, 2012)
Glucocorticoid deficiency is associated with a decrease of food intake. Orexigenic peptides, neuropeptide Y (NPY) and agouti related protein (AgRP), and the anorexigenic peptide proopiomelanocortin (POMC), expressed in the ...
Neuropeptides in the human brainstem
(Investigacion ClinicaVenezuela, 2018-08-26)
The physiological importance of the brainstem has made it one of the most studied structures of the central nervous system of mammals (in- cluding human). This structure receives somatic and visceral inputs and its neurons ...

Estradiol-induced hypophagia is associated with the differential mRNA expression of hypothalamic neuropeptides
(Associação Brasileira de Divulgação Científica, 2010)
Estradiol participates in the control of energy homeostasis, as demonstrated by an increase in food intake and in body weight gain after ovariectomy in rats. In the present study, female Wistar rats (200-230 g, N = 5-15 ...
