Interactions of zebrafish peptide YYb with the neuropeptide Y-family receptors Y4, Y7, Y8a and Y8b

Interactions of zebrafish peptide YYb with the neuropeptide Y-family receptors Y4, Y7, Y8a and Y8b

The neuropeptide Y (NPY) system influences numerous physiological functions including feeding behavior, endocrine regulation, and cardiovascular regulation. In jawed vertebrates it consists of 3-4 peptides and 4-7 receptors. Teleost fishes have unique duplicates of NPY and PYY as well as the Y8 rece...
