Central administration of C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) modulates food consumption in broilers: involvement of dopaminergic, melanocortinergic, and neuropeptide Y receptors.

C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP), belonging to the natriuretic peptide group, has recently emerged as a potential modulator of feeding behavior in mammalian species. This study aimed to examine the impact of central infusion of CNP-22 on feeding beha…
