Galanin, a neuropeptide widely expressed in the central and peripheral nervous systems
and in the endocrine system, has been shown to regulate numerous physiological and …

The neuropeptide galanin has a widespread but no means ubiquitous expression pattern in
the nervous and endocrine systems. Profound changes in the levels and distribution of the …

Galanin-overexpressing transgenic mice (GAL-tg) generated on a dopamine β-hydroxylase
promoter were previously shown to express high levels of galanin mRNA in the locus …

The galanin receptor family of proteins is present throughout the central nervous system and
endocrine system. It comprises of three subtypes—GalR1, GalR2, and GalR3; all of which …

Galanin has been implicated in various physiological functions including memory, feeding
and pain perception. Using rat cerebral cortical slices and synaptosome preparations …

The neuropeptide galanin suppresses seizure activity in the hippocampus by inhibiting
glutamatergic neurotransmission. Galanin may also modulate limbic seizures through …

Galanin can be synthesized in several ascending systems including cholinergic forebrain
neurons, serotonergic dorsal raphe neurons, and the noradrenergic locus coeruleus system …

Previous work has indicated that the neuropeptide galanin decreases sensitivity to the
rewarding effects of morphine and cocaine, but increases alcohol drinking. The aim of the …

Background: Galanin (GAL) plays a role in mood regulation. In this study we analyzed the
action of the active N-terminal fragment [GAL (1–15)] in anxiety-and depression-related …

Galanin and galanin receptors are widely expressed by neurons in rat brain that either
synthesize/release and/or are responsive to, classical transmitters such as γ‐aminobutyric …
