AimNeuropeptide W (NPW) is an endogenous ligand for the receptors GPR7 and GPR8 and is involved in central regulation of energy homeostasis. NPW in the periphery is found in gastric gastrin (G) cells. In the stomach, energy intake is influenced by vagal afferent signals, so we aimed to determine the effect of NPW on mechanosensitive gastric vagal afferents under different feeding conditions.

Visceral pain is studied at the level of the primary afferent fiber, spinal cord, subcortical, and cortical levels electrophysiologically and using brain imaging, which provides an objective measure of excitation at each level. However, correlation of these with actual perception of pain in conscious animal models has been problematic, and we rely on indirect measures in most preclinical research...
