Quantitative evaluation of octadecaneuropeptide-like immunoreactivity in hippocampus, cortex and cerebellum of long-term isolated male Wistar rats.

abstract：:Galanin (GAL) is known to stimulate feeding behavior. This peptide has different properties and functions from other feeding stimulants, e.g., neuropeptide Y and agouti-related protein. Hypothalamic GAL is relatively unresponsive to food deprivation and to changes in corticosterone, glucose utilization, dietary carboh...
