In Vitro Study

Study Snapshot

Neuropeptide Y inhibits intestinal circular muscle activity by disrupting enteric nervous system excitatory pathways, suggesting a potential physiologic role as a nonnoradrenergic inhibitory transmitter.

PopulationOlder adults (50-71 years)

Sample size24

MethodsObservational

OutcomesBody Mass Index projections

ResultsSocial networks mitigate obesity in older groups.
