Amylin is a calcitonin-related peptide co-secreted with insulin, which produces satiety
through brainstem-localized receptors; however, its effects in forebrain are poorly …

Amylin is a peptide co-secreted with insulin that penetrates into the brain, and produces
satiation-like effects via actions in the brainstem, hypothalamus, and mesencephalon. Little …

The pancreatic hormone amylin plays a central role in regulating energy homeostasis and
glycaemic control by stimulating satiation and reducing food reward, making amylin receptor …

Amylin acts in the CNS to reduce feeding and body weight. Recently, the ventral tegmental
area (VTA), a mesolimbic nucleus important for food intake and reward, was identified as a …

Amylin is a peptide hormone that is mainly known to be produced by pancreatic β-cells in
response to a meal but amylin is also produced by brain cells in discrete brain areas albeit …

Background The pancreatic-and brain-derived hormone amylin promotes negative energy
balance and is receiving increasing attention as a promising obesity therapeutic. However …

Amylin, a calcitonin gene-related peptide-like peptide coreleased with insulin, exerts
anorexic effects on central administration. Because previous studies revealed dense amylin …

New Findings What is the central question of this study? We tested whether intra‐nucleus
accumbens core amylin receptor (AmyR) activation suppresses feeding and evaluated …

Rationale Amylin receptors consist of the calcitonin receptor (CTR) and one of three receptor
activity-modifying proteins (RAMPs). The identification of amylin receptors in areas …

The ability of amylin, a pancreatic β-cell-derived neuropeptide, to promote negative energy
balance has been ascribed to neural activation at the area postrema. However, despite …
