The pharmacology of neuropeptide Y (NPY) receptor-mediated feeding in rats characterizes better Y5 than Y1, but not Y2 or Y4 subtypes

Thirteen neuropeptide Y (NPY) agonists were administered intracerebroventricularly (icv) in rats (full dose–response curves) to estimate their half-effective dose (ED 50) on feeding. These values were compared to their binding affinities (IC 50) for rat NPY receptor subtypes Y1, Y2, Y4 and Y5 in vit...

Zusammenfassung:Thirteen neuropeptide Y (NPY) agonists were administered intracerebroventricularly (icv) in rats (full dose–response curves) to estimate their half-effective dose (ED 50) on feeding. These values were compared to their binding affinities (IC 50) for rat NPY receptor subtypes Y1, Y2, Y4 and Y5 in vitro. Correlations between in vivo ED 50 and in vitro IC 50 were strong for the Y5 ( r=0.87; P
