Hypothalamic Actions of Neuromedin U (2002)
Journal Article

The central nervous system and gut peptide neuromedin U (NMU) inhibits feeding after intracerebroventricular injection. This study explored the hypothalamic actions of NMU on feeding and the hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal axis. Intraparaventricular nu... Read More about Hypothalamic Actions of Neuromedin U.

Hypothalamic Interactions Between Neuropeptide Y, Agouti-Related Protein, Cocaine- and Amphetamine-Regulated Transcript and Alpha-Melanocyte-Stimulating Hormone In Vitro in Male Rats (2002)
Journal Article

A number of neuropeptides implicated in the hypothalamic regulation of appetite are synthesized in the arcuate nucleus (Arc). Neuropeptide Y (NPY) and agouti-related protein (Agrp) are orexigenic. The pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) product alpha-melanoc...
