1. Neuropeptide Y caused a dose‐dependent contraction and depolarization of the smooth
muscle of the rat tail artery. 2. 30 nM‐neuropeptide Y increased the contraction caused by …

Pharmacological and physiological aspects for neuropeptide Y (NPY) and noradrenaline
(NA) cotransmission have been studied in the peripheral sympathetic nervous control of …

Publisher Summary The finding by Lundberg et al. that neuropeptide Y (NPY) is present in a
large population of nerve cell bodies in the sympathetic ganglia was the first indication that …

The participation of neuropeptide Y (NPY) in transmission from sympathetic vasoconstrictor
neurons was investigated in the guinea-pig uterine artery, where NPY has been …

Neuropeptide Y‐like immunoreactivity (NPY‐LI) and catecholamine concentrations in
plasma were analysed during and after 60 min of physical exercise at a work load …

1. NOS-immunoreactivity was shown to be colocalized with vasoactive peptides such as VIP,
PHI and NPY in postganglionic parasympathetic neurons to the submandibular gland. NOS …

The Y1 receptor is the predominant vascular NPY receptor subtype in pig hind limb and
kidney. Thus, vascular responses to exogenous and endogenous NPY were almost or totally …

The effects of sympathetic nerve stimulation on vasoconstrictor responses and overflow of
norepinephrine (NE) and neuropeptide Y-like immunoreactivity (NPY-LI) were studied in the …

Norepinephrine (NE)-evoked vasoconstrictor and pressor responses are reduced after
prolonged exposure; such desensitization is observed both clinically and experimentally …

The mechanism underlying the functional effects of neuropeptide Y (NPY)-like
immunoreactivity (LI) and noradrenaline (NA) and their release evoked by nerve stimulation …
