Central administration of neuropeptide Y (NPY) produces anxiolytic-like behavioral effects in rat models of anxiety. Because previous evidence has suggested a relationship between NPY and corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) in the brain, we have focused on the interaction of these neuropeptide systems in emotional responsiveness to stressful stimuli. Intracerebroventricular administration of CRF...
The neurosteroid allopregnanolone (3α-hydroxy-5α-pregnan-20-one) possesses clear anxiolytic-like effects. Other neurosteroids namely pregnenolone sulfate (PREG-S) and dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEA-S) influence anxiety-related behavior differently. In the present study, the implication of the amygdala, a key structure in mechanisms of fear and anxiety, was investigated as a potential neural...

Peptides 19(1) 85-92, 1998-The role of central neuropeptide Y (NPY) in the cardiovascular response to social stress was evaluated in freely moving rats using telemetry. In unstressed rats, intracerebroventricular (ICV) administration of NPY and the selective Y 1 receptor agonist [Leu...
