Which hormone is produced and released by the orexigenic neuron to stimulate appetite?

Which hormone is produced and released by the orexigenic neuron to stimulate appetite? Correct Answer Neuropeptide Y (NPY)

By generating and releasing neuropeptide Y (NPY), the orexigenic (appetite – stimulating) neurons induce feeding, allowing the next neuron in the circuit to transmit the signal to the brain to eat. In persons who eat ravenously, the high concentration of NPY is the reason for obesity.
