  2. 1. Evolution and Pharmacology of Neuropeptide Y Receptors, Implications for vertebrate genome duplications

    Author : Robert Fredriksson; Susanne Holmgren; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Neurosciences; Evolution; tetraploidizations; G-protein coupled receptor; neuropeptide Y; zebrafish; chicken; rainbow trout; lamprey; genome duplications; peptide YY; pancreatic polypeptide; Neurovetenskap; Neurology; Neurologi; medicinsk farmakologi; Medical Pharmacology;

    Abstract : The Y receptors comprise a family of evolutionarily related receptors belonging to the superfamily of G-protein coupled receptors (GPCR). Their natural ligands are in mammals neuropeptide Y (NPY), peptide YY (PYY) and pancreatic polypeptide (PP). READ MORE

  4. 2. Studies of the Neuropeptide Y Receptor Y2 in Human and Zebrafish
