The neurotensin system spans across the central nervous system, to the enteric nervous
system (gut), and the periphery to govern behaviors and physiological responses that tune …

The peptide neurotensin has been studied for more than 30 years. Although it is widely
distributed in the central and peripheral nervous systems, neurotensin has been more …

Neurotensin (NT), an endogenous brain–gut peptide, has a close anatomical and functional
relationship with the mesocorticolimbic and neostriatal dopamine system. Dysregulation of …

Pharmacologic treatment with the neuropeptide neurotensin (Nts) modifies motivated
behaviors such as feeding, locomotor activity, and reproduction. Dopamine (DA) neurons of …

Neurotensin (NT) is a peptide that is widely distributed throughout the brain. NT is involved
in locomotion, reward, stress and pain modulation, and in the pathophysiology of drug …

Neurotensin is a tridecapeptide originally identified in extracts of bovine hypothalamus. This
peptide has a close anatomical and functional relationship with the mesocorticolimbic and …

The formation of social groups provides safety and opportunities for individuals to develop
and practice important social skills. However, joining a social group does not result in any …

Neurotensin (NT) is a 13-amino acid neuropeptide found in the central nervous system and
in the gastrointestinal tract. It is closely associated anatomically with dopaminergic and other …

Recent evidence suggests that some types of neurotensin receptors may be expressed by
astrocytes. In order to explore the function of neurotensin receptors in astrocytes, the effect of …

Ejections of 10− 5–10− 3M neurotensin into the ventral tegmental area increased dopamine
efflux measured by electrochemical approaches in the prefrontal cortex of anaesthetized …
