-
genetic variation in NPY and NPY2R is at low frequency and thus does not make a major contribution to the obese phenotype in the general population
-
The present study explored whether functional NPY2R variant rs6857715 (C-599T) showed an association with Major Depressive Disorder. Analysis of the overall sample (595 MDD cases; 1295 controls) showed an association with the AD risk allele C. The present findings suggest that the NPY2R rs6857715 C-allele makes a genuine contribution toward MDD

not detected in infantile hemanogiomas
-
polymorphisms in the NPY2R gene may be useful in identifying women at risk for osteoporosis.
-
The C-terminal alpha-helix of Neuropeptide Y, which is formed in a membrane environment in the absence of the receptor, is unwound starting at T(32) to provide optimal contacts in a binding pocket within the transmembrane bundle of the NPY-Y2 receptor.
-
Data show that the Y2-receptor high expression G allele is associated with a less efficient mode of action cascading where different task goals are activated in parallel.
-
The molecular mobility of the human neuropeptide Y receptor type 2 reconstituted into dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine (DMPC) membranes was investigated by means of solid-state NMR spectroscopy.
-
The results of this study provide evidence that the functionally relevant single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the NPY2R promoter gene affect circumscribed processes of early sensory processing
-
Data indicate modest association of the age at onset (AO) with two neuropeptide Y (NPY) promoter variations and a highly significant association with NPY receptor NPY2R promoter single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP rs2234759).
-
This study reviews neuropeptide Y2 receptor modulators (mainly non-peptidic antagonists) and their structure-activity relationships.
-
this study concludes that common genetic variation in the proximal NPY2R promoter influences transcription factor binding so as to alter gene expression in neuroendocrine cells, and consequently cardiometabolic traits in humans.
-
we determined the role of the C-terminus in the anterograde transport of the human neuropeptide Y receptor (hYR) type 2
-
Surface masking of the Y2 receptor could to a degree reflect restricted access of the large (34-36-residue) physiological agonists.
-
NPY2R expression in neonatal saliva is predictive of an immature feeding pattern.
-
The influence of beta-arrestin adaptors and endocytosis mechanisms on plasma membrane diffusion and particle brightness of GFP-tagged neuropeptide Y (NPY) receptors, was investigated.
-
Four genetic loci were strongly and independently associated with obesity, NPY2R, NPFFR2, MC4R, and FTO.
-
protocol for the preparation of fully active Y2 G protein-coupled receptor
-
Data present a site-directed mutagenesis study of four amino acid positions in the human Y2 receptor.
-
Results report on the functional reconstitution of the hY(2)R and the hY(4)R in Sf9 insect cells using the baculovirus system.
-
neuropeptide Y1 and Y2 receptors were expressed in 33 percent of testicular tumors and Y1 on intratumoral blood vessels in 50 percent of testicular tumors
