PG early treatment prevented Y1R upregulation and resulted in lower NPY, Y2R and GalR1 mRNA levels. In the chronic phase, injured rats showed well-established mechanical and cold allodynia and significant increases in galanin, NPY, GalR1 and Y1R mRNAs, while maintaining reduced GalR2 expression. Animals receiving PG treatment showed basal expression levels of galanin, NPY, GalR1 and Y1R, and reduced Y2R mRNA levels

Results indicate that Galanin receptor 2/Neuropeptide Y Y1 receptor (GALR2/NPYY1R) interactions can provide a novel integrative mechanism in dentate gyrus in depression-related behavior and may give the basis for the development of drugs targeting GALR2/NPYY1R heteroreceptor complexes in the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus for the treatment of depression.
Title: Galanin receptor 2-neuropeptide Y Y1 receptor interactions in the dentate gyrus are related with antidepressant-like effects.

This study found that GALR2 mRNA was expressed in granulation tissue, including in pericytes, but only in pericytes that had been dissociated from endothelial cells.

High level of endogenous galanin in injured primary afferents activates peripheral GalR2, which leads to an increase in C-fibre mechanical activation thresholds and a marked reduction in evoked and ongoing nociceptive responses.

Data show that a galanin or a galanin receptor R2/3 agonist doubles the size of the ischemic lesion following middle cerebral artery occlusion in rats.
