Official Full Name
neuropeptide Y

Overview
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is a 36-amino acid neuropeptide that acts as a neurotransmitter in the brain and in the autonomic nervous system of humans; slight variations of the peptide are found in many other animals. In the autonomic system it is mainly produced by neurons of the sympathetic nervous system and serves as a strong vasoconstrictor and also causes growth of fat tissue. In the brain it is produced in various locations including the hypothalamus, and is thought to have several functions, including: increasing food intake and storage of energy as fat, reducing anxiety and stress, reducing pain perception, affecting the circadian rhythm, reducing voluntary alcohol intake, lowering blood pressure and controlling epileptic seizures. -

NPY has several biochemical functions, for example, G-protein coupled receptor activity, calcium channel regulator activity, neuropeptide Y receptor binding. Some of the functions are cooperated with other proteins, some of the functions could acted by NPY itself. We selected most functions NPY had, and list some proteins which have the same functions with NPY. You can find most of the proteins on our site.

Q&As (5)
Ask a questionWhile there are currently no NPY-based therapies approved for depression, research is exploring the potential of targeting NPY pathways for novel antidepressant treatments.
NPY has been shown to have anticonvulsant properties and may play a role in regulating seizure activity in the brain.
Research suggests that NPY-based therapies may have potential in the treatment of epilepsy, although more studies are needed.
NPY has been found to have an anxiolytic effect, meaning it can reduce anxiety and stress levels in the brain.
NPY has also been implicated in neurodegenerative disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease, and is being studied for its potential neuroprotective effects.
