Neuropeptide W-23 (NPW23) and neuropeptide W-30 (NPW30) are 23- and 30-amino acid peptides recently isolated from the porcine hypothalamus. Immunohistochemical studies using a rabbit polyclonal antiserum against the rat NPW23 peptide revealed a limited distribution in the rat brain. NPW23-immunoreactive (irNPW) cells were detected in the paraventricular nucleus (PVH), mainly in the parvocellular division,...
