Figure 2. Effect of NPS on neuropeptides expression.

Figure 2

HEK293 cells were transfected in duplicate experiments with NPSR1 cDNA or empty vector (ctrl) and stimulated with 1 μM NPS for six hours. mRNA levels for each gene were measured by quantitative Real-Time PCR and are expressed as relative fold induction (+SD), compared to control cells. CCK = cholecystokinin; CALCA = calcitonin-related polypeptide alpha; GHRL = ghrelin; MLN = motilin; PYY = peptide YY; PPY = pancreatic polypeptide; SST = somatostatin; VIP = vasoactive intestinal peptide. nd = not detected.
