Neuropeptide Y (human, rat)
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is a 36-amino acid endogenous neuropeptide which is involved in a variety of physiological and homeostatic processes, including food intake, sexual behavior and blood pressure. NPY is a vasonconstrictor that inhibits Ca2+-activated K+ channels in vascular smooth muscle. This NPY amino acid sequence is homologous for human, rat, rabbit, and guinea pig.
