## Abstract Central administration of neuropeptide Y (NPY) causes both anxiolysis and sedation. Previous studies suggest that both effects are mediated via NPY Y1 receptors. However, most of these studies were carried out before the advent of specific NPY receptor ligands. Therefore, a potential ro

## Abstract Numerous peptide receptors are overexpressed in human cancer, permitting __in vivo__ tumor targeting. Among such receptors, those for the neurotransmitter neuropeptide Y (NPY) are overexpressed in various tumors. Since NPY can play a role in the kidney, NPY receptor expression and/or en
