Abstract:
:Neuropeptide Y (NPY) and galanin are neuropeptides that are regulated by energy states and are also anticonvulsant. We tested the hypothesis that the anticonvulsant efficacy of the ketogenic diet (KD) is mediated by increased expression of NPY and galanin via alterations in food intake and energy metabolism. In situ hybridization revealed no effect of the KD on NPY or galanin mRNA expression, suggesting that increased expression of NPY and galanin do not contribute to the anticonvulsant effect of the KD.
