Background
Galanin is expressed in the central nervous system, including the hypothalamus, pituitary, and the spinal cord, and colocalizes with other neuronal peptides within neurons. It is also found in various tissues such as the gastrointestinal tract and pancreas, demonstrating its importance and versatility for neuro-hormonal homeostasis. Dysregulation of galanin and its related peptides has been implicated in various neuroendocrine conditions such as nociception, Alzheimer's disease, seizures, eating disorders, alcoholism, diabetes, and spinal cord conditions.
