Neuropeptide Y (NPY). The specificity was determined by RIA. Synthetic peptides somatostatin-14, leu-enkephalin, met-enkephalin, oxytocin, Agr8-vasopressin, vasoactive intestinal peptide and angiotensin II showed less than 0.005% cross reactivity and substance P less than 0.02%. Peptide YY and bovine pancreatic polypeptide showed approximately 36% and 0.05% cross reactivity respectively. Human Peptide YY shares 65% homology amino acid sequence for human NPY.
Synthetic NPY completely abolishes radio labeled NPY binding to NPY antibody in RIA and antibody binding to tissue antigen.
Immunogen
Synthetic NPY peptide conjugated to bovine thyroglobulin.

Noradrenaline (NA) acting via beta-adrenergic receptors (betaARs) plays an important role in the modulation of memory in the hippocampus. betaARs have been shown to be expressed in principal cells, but their distribution across different interneuron classes is unknown. We have
The anterolateral tract (ALT), which originates from neurons in lamina I and the deep dorsal horn, represents a major ascending output through which nociceptive information is transmitted to brain areas involved in pain perception. Although there is detailed quantitative information
Human monogenic obesity syndromes, including Bardet-Biedl syndrome (BBS), implicate neuronal primary cilia in regulation of energy homeostasis. Cilia in hypothalamic neurons have been hypothesized to sense and regulate systemic energy status, but the molecular mechanism of this signaling remains unknown.

RAD21 is a double-strand-break repair protein and component of the cohesin complex with key roles in cellular functions. A RAD21 loss-of-function mutation was found in cases of chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction (CIPO) with associated enteric neuronal loss. Analysis of RAD21 expression
