We used Y(1)R/LacZ transgenic mice to investigate the interaction between NPY, GABA and Y(1) receptors in the amygdala. Immunolabeling of GABA and NPY positive neurons and histochemical staining of beta-galactosidase revealed NPY and GABA colocalization and close contacts of NPY-positive fibers with GABAergic neurons also expressing the Y(1)R/LacZ transgene.

Abstract

We used Y(1)R/LacZ transgenic mice to investigate the interaction between NPY, GABA and Y(1) receptors in the amygdala. Immunolabeling of GABA and NPY positive neurons and histochemical staining of beta-galactosidase revealed NPY and GABA colocalization and close contacts of NPY-positive fibers with GABAergic neurons also expressing the Y(1)R/LacZ transgene.
