neuropeptide Y human

Description:
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is a 36-amino acid peptide that plays a crucial role in various physiological processes, including appetite regulation, circadian rhythms, and stress response. It is primarily produced in the central nervous system and is involved in neurotransmission. The CAS number 99575-89-0 specifically refers to the human form of neuropeptide Y. This peptide is characterized by its ability to bind to specific receptors, particularly Y1, Y2, and Y5 receptors, which mediate its diverse biological effects. NPY is known for its potent orexigenic (appetite-stimulating) properties, making it a significant factor in energy homeostasis. Additionally, it has been implicated in the modulation of anxiety and stress responses, as well as in cardiovascular regulation. The structure of NPY includes a conserved C-terminal region that is critical for receptor binding and activity. Overall, neuropeptide Y is a vital component of neuroendocrine signaling, influencing a wide range of physiological functions in humans.
