  • Title: Occurrence, distribution and nature of neuropeptide Y in the rat pancreas.
    Author: Carlei F, Allen JM, Bishop AE, Bloom SR, Polak JM.
    Journal: Experientia; 1985 Dec 15; 41(12):1554-7. PubMed ID: 2866975.
    Abstract:
    Significant quantities of a newly discovered peptide, neuropeptide Y, were found in the rat pancreas, where they were localized to nerves in the exocrine parenchyma and around arterial and ductal structures. Although unaffected by surgical parasympathectomy, the periarterial and periductal nerves were abolished by chemical sympathectomy, suggesting that NPY is partially costored with sympathetic transmitters in nerve fibers.
