To advance the understanding of sleep regulation, we screened for sleep-promoting cells
and identified neurons expressing neuropeptide Y-like short neuropeptide F (sNPF). Sleep …

… Modulation of neuropeptide release Presynaptic modulation can in turn regulate peptidergic
transmission (Figure 1c). For example, presynaptic inhibition of neuropeptide release in a …

… We therefore studied the effect of NPY on short circuit current in the guinea-pig and rabbit
ileal mucosa. Our results show that NPY and PYY are the most powerful inhibitory modulators …

… the stimulation conditions that release neuropeptide Y from cardiac sympathetic neurons.
In … inhibition of the vagal effects on cycle length as an indirect measure of neuropeptide Y …

… in the lateral brain ventricle strongly inhibited by more than 50% chow … neuropeptide Y
(NPY) at equimolar doses. It also did not affect the fasting concentrations of important modulators …

Dramatically up-regulated in the dorsal horn of the mammalian spinal cord following
inflammation or nerve injury, neuropeptide Y (NPY) is poised to regulate the transmission of …

… , the inhibitory effect of neuropeptide Y on basal and cAMP-stimulated short-circuit current
was abolished by tetrodotoxin, and the inhibitory effect of neuropeptide Y on basal short-circuit …

… involving over 40 hormones, neuropeptides, enzymes, other … energy expenditure by
inhibiting the sympathetic nerves that … induces peptidic modulation and long-term weight loss. …

… inhibitor, and scopolamine, an anticholinergic. Pre-test administration of NPY improved
recall but did not affect acquisition. These data support the concept that NPY is a modulator of …

… To investigate this hypothesis further, we proposed that insulin’s central action may involve
neuropeptide Y (NPY), a brain neuropeptide implicated in the metabolic regulation of food …
