Galanin-like peptide (GALP) shares partial sequence identity with galanin and exhibits
agonistic activity at two of the galanin receptor subtypes (GALR1 and GALR2) in vitro. The …

Structure-activity studies demonstrate that galanin fragments 1-15 and 2-29 are fully active,
whereas fragment 3-29 has been reported to be inactive, in a number of different in vivo …

We have isolated a novel hypothalamic peptide, Galanin-like peptide (GALP), as a ligand for
galanin receptor subtype GalR2. To investigate the physiological role of GALP, we …

Galanin-like peptide (GALP) was recently identified in the porcine hypothalamus, pituitary
gland and gut, and has reported selectivity for the GalR2, cf the GalR1 receptor. GALP …

Human galanin (hGal) is an important neuro-modulator present in the brain, gastrointestinal
system and the hypothalamo-pituitary axis. A specific receptor for hGal has been identified in …

Galanin has diverse physiological functions, including nociception, arousal/sleep regulation,
cognition, and many aspects of neuroendocrine activities that are associated with feeding …

Galanin is a 29‐or 30‐amino acid peptide with wide‐ranging effects on hormone release,
feeding behavior, smooth muscle contractility, and somatosensory neuronal function. Three …

The neuropeptide galanin is expressed in brain structures implicated in regulation of
emotionality. The amygdala is known to play a central role in mechanisms of fear and …

The peptide, galanin (GAL), is known to stimulate eating behavior, reduce energy
expenditure and affect the release of metabolic hormones. Further, the activity of this peptide …

The effects of galanin (GAL) on magnocellular neurosecretory cells (MNCs) were examined
during microelectrode recordings from supraoptic neurons in superfused hypothalamic …
