"Neuropeptide Y" is a descriptor in the National Library of Medicine's controlled vocabulary thesaurus,
MeSH (Medical Subject Headings). Descriptors are arranged in a hierarchical structure,
which enables searching at various levels of specificity.
A 36-amino acid peptide present in many organs and in many sympathetic noradrenergic neurons.
