Introduction: Galanin is a 29/30 amino acid long neuropeptide that is widely expressed in
the brains of many mammals. Galanin exerts its biological activities through three different G …

The neuropeptide galanin is expressed in the dorsal root ganglia (DRG) and spinal cord and
is thought to be involved in the modulation of pain processing. However, its mechanisms of …

We investigated a possible link between galanin expression and evoked pain
accompanying painful partial sciatic nerve lesions. Increased galanin immunoreactivity (IR) …

Since its discovery in 1983 galanin has been implicated in many diverse biological roles [1].
It has a widespread distribution throughout both the central (CNS) and peripheral nervous …

The neuropeptide galanin is widely, but not ubiquitously, expressed in the adult nervous
system. Its expression is markedly up-regulated in many neuronal tissues after nerve injury …

Galanin, one of the many (> 100) neuropeptides, was discovered in 1983 based on its C-
terminal amidation motif. Over the years, three more members of the galanin family have …

Galanin was first identified 30 years ago as a" classic neuropeptide," with actions primarily
as a modulator of neurotransmission in the brain and peripheral nervous system. Other …

Galanin is a neuropeptide initiating its multiple biological effects by binding to different
subtypes of seven transmembrane spanning galanin receptors, thus transducing the …

In most parts of the peripheral nervous system galanin is expressed at very low levels. To
further understand the functional role of galanin, a mouse overexpressing galanin under the …

We have identified a novel subtype of galanin receptor (GALR‐2) in rat dorsal root ganglia
and spinal cord. The open reading frame of GALR‐2 is 1116 nucleotides long, encoding a …
