Abstract
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is a containing 36 amino acid residues peptides, extremely rich in human and other mammalian circulatory system. Neurotensin (NT) is a purification of bioactive peptide, widely distributed in the human heart and vascular. Recent numerous studies showed that NPY and NT took part in the regulation of cardiovascular function and the pathophysiology of cardiovascular disease by a variety of mechanisms, and closely related to with the development of hypertension. This article reviews the advancement in relationship between NPY, NT and Hypertension.
