Neuropeptide Y (2-36) (porcine) is a porcine-derived neuropeptide with 97.14% homology to rat/human origin. Neuropeptide Y (2-36) (porcine) is also a rat neuropeptide receptor agonist, with EC50 values of 1.2, 1.6 and 3.4 nM for receptor of Y5, Y2 and Y1 respectively. Neuropeptide Y (2-36) (porcine) can be used in studies related to obesity and eating disorders[1]. | [in vivo]
Neuropeptide Y (2-36) (porcine) (1.23 μg/rat; i.c.v.; single) induces food intake in rats[1]. | Animal Model: | Male Sprague-Dawley rats (180-220 g)[1]. | | Dosage: | 1.23 μg/rat (300 pmol/rat) | | Administration: | Intracerebroventricular injection; single | | Result: | Increased food intake to 5.0 g 4 hours later. |
