The ability of NPY, PP, and various NPY analogs to inhibit forskolin-stimulated cAMP production in HEK 293 or CHO-K1 cells expressing one of the four human or rat NPY receptor subtypes was measured. cAMP assays were done in triplicate. The values are the mean ± S.E.M. of three determinations except where noted.
