Genetic deletion of the Y4 receptor impaired fear extinction, an effect that was rescued by short-term fasting

These data demonstrate glucose-regulated secretion of PP and its effects on glucagon release through PPYR1 receptors expressed by alpha-cells.

Data describe the complex interaction between Y2/Y4 receptors in control of bone mass, and suggest that the reduction in cortical bone observed in the absence of leptin is due to the anti-osteogenic effect of elevated hypothalamic NPY levels.
Title: Y2 and Y4 receptor signalling attenuates the skeletal response of central NPY.

Taken together, this work demonstrates the critical roles of Y2 and Y4 receptors in the regulation of body composition and energy metabolism, highlighting dual antagonism of Y2 and Y4 receptors as a potentially effective anti-obesity treatment.
Title: Y2 and Y4 receptor signaling synergistically act on energy expenditure and physical activity.

These findings show that pancreatic polypeptide reduces food intake predominantly via stimulation of the anorexigenic alpha-MSH signaling pathway, and that this effect is mediated by direct action on local Y4 receptors within the arcuate nucleus.
