pubmed:abstractText |
Both zinc and neuropeptide Y (NPY) have been implicated as playing a role in seizures and feeding behavior. We investigated the hypothesis that zinc could regulate levels of NPY, and found that chronic exposure to 50-100 microM zinc increased levels of cellular NPY in cultured PC12 cells grown in the presence of nerve growth factor. Zinc's effect on NPY was specific, time- and concentration-dependent, and independent of inhibition of NPY release secondary to blockade of dihydropyridine-sensitive calcium channels. These results are consistent with a role for zinc in regulating hippocampal NPY following high-frequency neuronal activity.
