Exposure of food proteins to certain processing conditions induces two major chemical
changes: racemization of all l-amino acids to d-isomers and concurrent formation of cross …

This review aims to give a brief overview of NPY receptor distribution and physiology in the
brain and summarizes series of studies, test by test and region by region, aimed at …

SIGNAL transducers and activators of transcription (STATs) are activated by tyrosine
phosphorylation in response to cytokines and mediate many of their functional responses1 …

Abstract NEUROPEPTIDE Y (NPY) is a powerful stimulant of food intake and is proposed to
activate a hypothalamic'feeding'receptor distinct from previously cloned Y-type receptors1 …

The peptidic neurotransmitter neuropeptide Y (NPY) has received great attention because it
has been implicated in the regulation of several organ systems. In particular, NPY is …

The three peptides pancreatic polypeptide (PP), peptide YY (PYY), and neuropeptide Y
(NPY) share a similar structure known as the PP-fold. There are four known human G …

Neuropeptide Y (NPY) plays important roles in the central control of appetite and energy
balance, but the receptor subtype responsible for this function has not been cloned. Here we …

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

The synthesis of more than fifty 36‐residue oligopeptide analogs of neuropeptide Y (NPY)
and their affinity to human Y1, and Y2, receptors is described. Each amino acid of the natural …

The neuropeptide Y system has proven to be one of the most important regulators of feeding
behaviour and energy homeostasis, thus presenting great potential as a therapeutic target …
