The hypothalamus plays an important role in the regulation of feeding behavior, energy
metabolism and reproduction. A novel peptide containing 60 amino acid peptide and a non …

Background: There is growing evidence suggesting that hypothalamic galanin (GAL), which
is known to stimulate intake of a fat‐rich diet, has a role in promoting the consumption of …

Enterostatin, the activation peptide of pancreatic procolipase, suppresses high-fat diet
consumption both centrally and peripherally. κ-opioid agonists are also known to stimulate …

The peptide galanin has been implicated in the neuroendocrine regulation of reproduction
and energy balance. To gain more insight into the functional significance of galanin in these …

The neuropeptide galanin is expressed in sympathetic nerve terminals that surround islet
cells and inhibits insulin secretion. To explore its role for islet function, we studied mice with …

In order to explore which amino acids or which blocks of amino acids in the 29 amino acid
neuropeptide galanin are important for recognition of the endogenous ligand by galanin …

The neuropeptide galanin is widely distributed throughout the central and peripheral
nervous systems and participates in the regulation of processes such as nociception …

It is thought that galanin, a 29 amino acid neuropeptide, is involved in various neuronal
functions, including the regulation of food intake and hormone release. Consistent with this …

Examines the effects of hypothalamic galanin systems on hypothalamic neurons.
Distribution of galanin and galanin receptor systems in hypothalamus; Inhibitory effects of …

Neuropeptide Y (NPY) and galanin have both been implicated in the regulation of body
weight, yet mice bearing deletions of either of these molecules have unremarkable …
