Product overview

Name Orexin A (human, rat, mouse)
Biological description

Overview

Excitatory neuropeptide at orexin receptors (Ki values are 20 and 38 nM for OX1 and OX2 receptors respectively).

Orexin-A is synthesized by a cluster of neurons in the lateral hypothalamus and perifornical area. Orexin A is composed of 33 amino acids.

Uses and applications

The peptide is involved in a variety of physiological functions. E.g. feeding behavior, sleep/wake rhythms, thermoregulation, energy metabolism and cardiovascular activity. More recently orexins have been suggested to have a role in emotional regulation, energetic homeostasis, reward mechanisms, drug addiction, arousal system, sleep and wakefulness.
