1 We have reported previously that the NPY Y1 receptor antagonist BIBP3226 applied into the dorsal periaqueductal gray matter (DPAG) has an anxiogenic-like effect in the elevated plus-maze test in rats. dpag neuropeptide Y Rattus norvegicus
2 These results provide additional evidence that NPY-ergic neurotransmission in the DPAG may be involved in the modulation of anxiety-related behaviour and suggest that endogenous NPY, released under stressful conditions in the DPAG, relieves anxiety via the NPY Y1 receptors. dpag neuropeptide Y Rattus norvegicus
