MeSH definition : A family of G-protein-coupled receptors that are specific for GALANIN and galanin
peptides. They are generally considered to be coupled to the GI, INHIBITORY G-PROTEIN
to meditate the neurological effects of galanin. Several subtypes of galanin receptors
occur with differing specificities for the full length galanin, galanin peptide fragments,
and galanin-like peptide.;
