Neuropeptide Y: complete amino acid sequence of the brain peptide.
The amino acid sequence of neuropeptide Y, a 36-residue peptide recently isolated from porcine brain, has been determined by using high performance liquid chromatography for separation of its tryptic and chymotryptic fragments and subsequent sequence analysis of the isolated fragments by an improved dansyl Edman subtractive technique. The amino acid sequence of neuropeptide Y has been found to ...
متن کاملcomparison of catalytic activity of heteropoly compounds in the synthesis of bis(indolyl)alkanes.
heteropoly acids (hpa) and their salts have advantages as catalysts which make them both economically and environmentally attractive, strong br?nsted acidity, exhibiting fast reversible multi-electron redox transformations under rather mild conditions, very high solubility in polar solvents, fairly high thermal stability in the solid states, and efficient oxidizing ability, so that they are imp...
15 صفحه اولNeuropeptide Y and its involvement in chronic pain.
Chronic pain is a serious condition that significantly impairs the quality of life, affecting an estimate of 1.5 billion people worldwide. Despite the physiological, emotional and financial burden of chronic pain, there is still a lack of efficient treatments. Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is a highly conserved endogenous peptide in the central and peripheral nervous systems of all mammals, which has be...
متن کاملNeuropeptide Y and its role in CNS disease and repair.
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is widely expressed throughout the CNS and exerts a number of important physiological functions as well as playing a role in pathological conditions such as obesity, anxiety, epilepsy, chronic pain and neurodegenerative disorders. In this review, we highlight some of the recent advances in our understanding of NPY biology and how this may help explain not only its role in h...
متن کاملNeuropeptide Y GERALD
NEUROPEPTIDE Y (NPY) was identified as a neuropeptide that is colocalized and coreleased with the neurotransmitter norepinephrine from sympathetic nerve terminals. In this regard, a large body of research on NPY focused on its role in autonomic physiology and pharmacology as a potentiator of the postsynaptic actions of norepinephrine. However, with the increased understanding of the genes and t...
