NPY and Anxiety: It was proposed that vGlut2‐containing vBNST projections to the VTA are anxiogenic and aversive, while vGAT‐containing vBNST neurons produce an anxiolytic and rewarding phenotype.17 However, it remains to be demonstrated whether AgRP/NPY neurons can reduce anxiety by the activation of Y2Rs located on vGlut2 BNST neurons (Fig. 7).
