Gene Information

rabbit ... Npy(100301542)

Specificity

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.

Application

Detect Neuropeptide Y using this Anti-Neuropeptide Y Antibody validated for use in IH, RIA.
Immunohistochemistry: 1:5,000 on rabbit and guinea pig using an ABC detection method.

RIA

Optimal working dilutions must be determined by the end user.

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

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.
