High impact information on Rfrp

Expression of the RFamide-related peptide mRNA in the rat CNS was distinctly different from that of neuropeptide FF [1].
However, there was a prominent group of RFamide-related peptide mRNA-expressing neurons in the central hypothalamus, in the area in and between the dorsomedial and ventromedial nuclei [1].
The mammalian RFamide-related peptide RFRP1 was found to signal through the neuropeptide FF 2 receptor expressed in Xenopus oocytes [1].

RFamide-related peptides signal through the neuropeptide FF receptor and regulate pain-related responses in the rat. Pertovaara, A., Ostergård, M., Ankö, M.L., Lehti-Koivunen, S., Brandt, A., Hong, W., Korpi, E.R., Panula, P. Neuroscience (2005) [Pubmed]
