Galanin is a neuropeptide, which is critically involved in homeostatic processes like
controlling arousal, sleep, and regulation of stress. This extensive range of functions aligns …

Galanin is a neuropeptide widely expressed in the nervous system, but it is also present in
non-neuronal locations. In the brain, galanin may function as an inhibitory neurotransmitter …

The shift in the balance between the inhibition and the excitation in favor of the latter is a
major mechanism of the evolvement of epileptic seizures. On the neurotransmitter level two …

Background Galanin is a neuropeptide with a wide distribution in the central and peripheral
nervous systems and whose physiological effects are mediated through three G protein …

Galanin is a widely-distributed neuropeptide that acts as an endogenous anticonvulsant. We
have recently generated a galanin receptor type 1 knockout mouse (Galr1−/−) that develops …

Previous studies have shown that the expression of the neuropeptide galanin in the
hippocampus is altered by seizures and that exogenous administration of galanin into the …

BACKGROUND: Galanin is a neuropeptide with a wide distribution in the central and
peripheral nervous systems and whose physiological effects are mediated through three G …

Accumulating evidence indicates that disruption of galanin signaling is associated with
neuropsychiatric disease, but the precise functions of this neuropeptide remain largely …

Galanin is a neuropeptide synthesized in many neuronal types including brainstem
norepinephrine-producing cells of the locus coeruleus and the serotonin-producing neurons …

Like a number of neuropeptides, galanin can alter neural activity in brain areas that are
important for both stress-related behaviors and responses to drugs of abuse. Accordingly …
