The melanocortin system plays an important role in the regulation of energy homeostasis.
The Agouti-related protein (AGRP) is a natural antagonist of the action of alpha-melanocyte …

The presence and distribution of agouti-related protein (AgRP) immunoreactivity were
investigated in the hypothalamus and adrenal gland of the duck using …

Many vertebrates express profound annual cycles of body fattening, although it is not clear
whether these represent differential activity of the central pathways known to mediate …

The blood concentration of agouti-related protein (AgRP), a protein related to hyperphagia
and obesity, is increased in obese human and fasted lean subjects. Because there is no …

Arcuate hypothalamus-derived agouti-related protein (AgRP) and neuropeptide Y (NPY) are
critical for maintaining energy homeostasis. Fasting markedly upregulates AgRP/NPY …

Agouti-related protein (AgRP) is an orexigenic neuropeptide produced by neurons in the
hypothalamic arcuate nucleus (ARC) that is a key component of central neural circuits that …

We measured plasma concentrations of agouti‐related protein (AGRP) in humans and rats
and determined whether these were affected by ingestion of a meal after fasting. In 17 …

Agouti-related protein (AgRP), an endogenous melanocortin 3/4 receptor antagonist,
appears to play an important role in the control of food intake and energy balance because …

Agouti-related protein (Agrp) encodes a hypothalamic neuropeptide that promotes positive
energy balance by stimulating food intake and reducing energy expenditure. Agrp …

The Agouti-Related Protein (AgRP) is a powerful orexigenic peptide that increases food
intake when ubiquitously overexpressed or when administered centrally. AgRP-deficiency …
