Neuropeptide y receptor selective ligands in the treatment of obesity.

Endocrine reviews - 1 Oct 2007

Kamiji M M, Inui A

Abstract excerpt

Obesity is a serious public health problem throughout the world, affecting both developed societies and developing countries. The central nervous system has developed a meticulously interconnected circuitry in order to keep us fed and in an adequate nutritional state. One of these consequences is that an energy-dense environment favors the development of obesity. Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is one of the most abundant...
