About Orexin A
Orexin A (Hypocretin-1) is a 33-amino acid neuropeptide produced in the lateral hypothalamus that activates both OX1R and OX2R orexin receptors. It is a master regulator of arousal, wakefulness, appetite, and energy homeostasis, and is a key research tool for sleep disorder models.
Orexin A: research context
- OX1R/OX2R receptor binding and downstream signalling research
- Sleep–wake cycle and arousal regulation studies
- Appetite and feeding behaviour neuroscience research
- Narcolepsy and hypersomnia model research
