The structure-activity relationship of a series of tricyclic-sulfonamide compounds 11-32 culminating in the discovery of N-[trans-4-(4,5-dihydro-3,6-dithia-1-aza-benzo[e]azulen-2-ylamino)-cyclohexylmethyl]-methanesulfonamide (15, Lu AA33810) is reported. Compound 15 was identified as a selective and high affinity NPY5 antagonist with good oral bioavailability in mice (42%) and rats (92%). Dose dependent inhibition of feeding was observed after i.c.v. injection of the selective NPY5 agonist ([cPP(1-7),NPY(19-23),Ala(31),Aib(32),Gln(34)]-hPP). In addition, ip administration of Lu AA33810 (10 mg/kg) produced antidepressant-like effects in a rat model of chronic mild stress.

Studies conducted on mammalian models have indicated the role of galanin-like peptide (GALP) in appetite regulation. For the first time, the present study examines the effects of this peptide on feed consumption and behavioral changes, as well as its interaction with dopaminergic and neuropeptide Y (NPY) systems in broilers. In experiment 1, broilers were injected with GALP (0.

This novel study investigated the effects of intracerebroventricular (ICV) injection α- klotho and its interaction with neuropeptide Y (NPY) receptors on food intake in broiler chicken. This study included 4 experiments with 4 groups in each with 11 replicates per group. Birds were feed deprived 3 h prior injection, following injection returned to their cage and food provided.

Adrenomedullin has various physiological roles including appetite regulation. The objective of present study was to determine the effects of ICV injection of adrenomedullin and its interaction with NPY and CCK receptors on food intake regulation. In experiment 1, chickens received ICV injection of saline and adrenomedullin (1, 2, and 3 nmol).

Visfatin play an essential role in the central regulation of appetite in birds. This study aimed to determine role of intracerebroventricular (ICV) injection of the visfatin on food intake and its possible interaction with neuropeptide Y (NPY) and nitric oxide system in neonatal broiler chicken. In experiment 1, neonatal chicken received ICV injection visfatin (1, 2 and 4 µg).

In several studies, the regulatory role of the neuropeptide W (NPW) system in food intake has been demonstrated. Considering the lack of avian studies in this field, the current research was conducted to evaluate the effects of intracerebroventricular (ICV) infusion of NPW and its interferences with corticotropin, melanocortin, and neuropeptide Y (NPY) receptors on meal consumption and feeding behaviors of broilers. In the first experiment, birds were injected with NPW (0.
