NPY and Y receptors: lessons from transgenic and knockout models.

Neuropeptides - 1 Aug 2004

Lin Shu, Boey Dana, Herzog Herbert

Abstract excerpt

Neuropeptide Y (NPY) in the central nervous system is a major regulator of food consumption and energy homeostasis. It also regulates blood pressure, induces anxiolysis, enhances memory retention, affects circadian rhythms and modulates hormone release. Five Y receptors (Y1, Y2, Y4, Y5 and Y6) are known to mediate the action of NPY and its two other family members, peptide YY (PYY) and pancreatic polypeptide...
