Description
Research Overview
Orexin A (Hypocretin-1) is a 33-amino acid neuropeptide produced by a small population of neurons in the lateral hypothalamus. It plays a central role in the regulation of wakefulness, arousal, appetite, and reward pathways. Loss of orexin-producing neurons is associated with narcolepsy in research models.
