Beschreibung

Neuropeptide Y is a potent neuropeptide that regulates many biological processes in vertebrates. It has been shown to regulate various processes, including feeding, anxiety, reproduction, and pain. Neuropeptide Y is synthesized as an amide of the amino acid L-tyrosine. The synthetic peptide can be either enantiomer or a mixture of both enantiomers. The presence of neuropeptides Y in the extracellular fluid is potently regulated by the neuropeptide Y receptor subtype 2 (Y2R). Neuropeptide Y has been shown to inhibit egg development in mosquitoes when injected into their ovaries at high doses. This effect was dose-dependent and was mediated by receptors on the surface of cho-k1 cells (a rat kidney cell line). The homologues of neuropeptide Y are called peptides PYY and PYY3-36.
