| Targets |
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) receptors, particularly the Y2 receptor subtype. PYY also interacts with Y1, Y4, and Y5 receptor subtypes with varying affinities. As an agonist at these receptors, PYY activates GPCR-mediated signaling pathways that regulate appetite, energy homeostasis, and gastrointestinal function. The Y2 receptor mediates the anorexigenic (appetite-suppressing) effects of PYY.

| ln Vitro |
Like PP and neuropeptide Y (NPY), intestinal hormone peptide YY (PYY) is a member of the pancreatic polypeptide (PP) family. NPY receptors, of which there are several subtypes (Y1, Y2, Y4, and Y5), are the pathway by which these peptides elicit their effects [1]. A little peptide of 36 amino acids is called pancreatic polypeptide YY (Peptide YY). It has since been found in different areas of the body, having initially been extracted from the pig gut and secreted by neuroendocrine cells (L cells) of the gastrointestinal mucosa. connected to the gastrointestinal tract [2].
PYY belongs to the pancreatic polypeptide family along with PP and neuropeptide Y (NPY). These peptides mediate their effects through NPY receptor subtypes Y1, Y2, Y4, and Y5. PYY shows high affinity for the Y2 receptor, which is involved in appetite regulation. The peptide is 36 amino acids in length and was originally isolated from porcine intestine. It has been localized to various locations associated with the digestive system. |
| ln Vivo |
Pancreatic secretion stimulated by secretin is significantly inhibited by peptide YY. Pancreatic bicarbonate and fluid secretion induced by a single dose of secretin (0.1 units/kg) were dramatically decreased by very modest doses of peptide YY (10–20 pmol/kg). Peptide YY doses of 100–200 pmol/kg cause a 70–80% decrease in fluid secretion and pancreatic bicarbonate [3]. In rabbits, peptide YY localizes to atherosclerotic plaques and blood arteries. The vascular tree experiences vasoconstriction as a result [2].
In vivo, PYY strongly inhibits secretin-stimulated pancreatic secretion. A very low dose of PYY (10-20 pmol/kg) significantly decreases pancreatic secretion of bicarbonate and fluid stimulated by a single dose of secretin (0.1 unit/kg). A dose of 100-200 pmol/kg causes a 70-80% reduction in pancreatic bicarbonate and fluid secretion. PYY is localized to blood vessels and atherosclerotic plaques in rabbits and causes vasoconstriction of the vascular tree. |
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro receptor binding assays are performed using membrane preparations from cells expressing recombinant NPY receptor subtypes (Y1, Y2, Y4, Y5). Increasing concentrations of PYY (0.01 nM - 1 μM) are incubated with a fixed concentration of radiolabeled NPY (e.g., [¹²⁵I]-PYY) in assay buffer (50 mM HEPES, pH 7.4, 5 mM MgCl₂, 1 mM CaCl₂, 0.1% BSA) for 60-120 minutes at room temperature. Nonspecific binding is determined using 1 μM unlabeled NPY. Bound radioactivity is separated by filtration and quantified. IC50 or Ki values are calculated by nonlinear regression.
|
| Cell Assay |
No specific cell-based assay protocols are extensively documented for PYY. For cellular functional assays, cells expressing NPY receptors are treated with varying concentrations of PYY (0.01 nM - 1 μM) for 30-60 minutes. Receptor activation is measured by detecting intracellular calcium mobilization, cAMP accumulation (for Gi-coupled Y2 receptors), or ERK phosphorylation. PYY-mediated inhibition of forskolin-stimulated cAMP accumulation is a common readout for Y2 receptor activity. Dose-response curves are generated and EC50 values are calculated.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In animal studies, PYY is administered via intravenous infusion or injection. In anesthetized adult cats (4 kg), secretin and CCK (1.5 units/kg/hr each) are infused through the saphenous vein using a perfusion pump at 10 ml/hr. PYY (10-250 pmol/kg) is infused or injected through the saphenous vein. Pancreatic juice is collected from the cannulated pancreatic duct in 10-minute periods. Juice volume and bicarbonate content are measured. In rabbits, New Zealand White rabbits are fed an atherogenic diet for 4 weeks; immunohistochemistry is used to determine PYY and eNOS localization in the aorta and other arteries.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
PYY is a 36-amino acid peptide with a molecular weight of 4309.75. It is soluble in water at 100 mg/mL (23.20 mM) with ultrasonication. As a peptide, it has a short half-life in circulation due to rapid proteolytic degradation. It should be stored as powder at -80°C for up to 2 years, at -20°C for up to 1 year, or in solution at -80°C for 6 months and at -20°C for 1 month, sealed, away from moisture and light, under nitrogen. The peptide is stable when stored properly.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
No specific toxicity data are documented for Peptide YY (PYY), human. As an endogenous gut hormone, PYY is naturally produced in the body and is generally well-tolerated at physiological concentrations. In research settings, standard laboratory safety practices should be followed when handling the peptide. The compound is intended for research use only and is not approved for human therapeutic applications. Toxicity profiling would be required for any therapeutic development beyond its natural physiological role.

PYY (human) is a 36-amino acid peptide amide with the sequence YPIKPEAPGEDASPEELNRYYASLRHYLNLVTRQRY-NH2. It is a member of the neuropeptide Y family and is highly conserved across species. PYY has been investigated as a potential appetite suppressant for obesity treatment. It is secreted postprandially in proportion to caloric intake and acts as a "ileal brake" to slow gastrointestinal transit. PYY levels are reduced in obese individuals, making it a therapeutic target for metabolic disorders. The compound is for research use only. |
