Interactions between orexin A, NPY and galanin in the control of food intake of the goldfish, Carassius auratus

The neuropeptides orexin A (OXA), neuropeptide Y (NPY) and galanin (GAL) have been shown to play a role in the regulation of food intake in mammals. They also significantly stimulate feeding in goldfish. In order to assess the interactions between these peptides in the control of feeding in goldfish...
