Orexin directly excites orexin neurons through orexin 2 receptor.

Orexin neurons (hypocretin neurons) have a critical role in the regulation of sleep/wakefulness, especially in the maintenance of arousal. Here, we revealed that orexin neurons are directly and indirectly activated by orexin via the orexin 2 receptor (OX2R). Orexin B (1 μM) induced depolarization in orexin neurons, which was still observed in the presence of TTX (1 μM), AP-5 (50 μM), and CNQX (...

Orexin/hypocretin excites the histaminergic neurons of the tuberomammillary nucleus.

The hypothalamic orexin (hypocretin) neuropeptides are associated with the regulation of sleep and feeding, and disturbances in orexinergic neurotransmission lead to a narcoleptic phenotype. Histamine has also been shown to play a role in the regulation of sleep and feeding. Therefore, we studied the relationship between the orexin and histamine systems of the CNS using electrophysiology, immun...

Orexin and Orexin Receptors

“Reverse pharmacology”, i.e., ligand identification using cell lines expressing orphan receptors, combined with genetic engineering techniques, has increased our understanding of novel signaling systems in the body. Orexin is the first and most successful example of the factors to which such an approach was applied. Our group initially identified orexin A and orexin B as endogenous peptide liga...

Hypocretin/Orexin Peptides Excite Rat Neuroendocrine Dopamine Neurons through Orexin 2 Receptor-Mediated Activation of a Mixed Cation Current

Hypocretin/Orexin (H/O) neurons of the lateral hypothalamus are compelling modulator candidates for the chronobiology of neuroendocrine output and, as a consequence, hormone release from the anterior pituitary. Here we investigate the effects of H/O peptides upon tuberoinfundibular dopamine (TIDA) neurons - cells which control, via inhibition, the pituitary secretion of prolactin. In whole cell...

Cholecystokinin activates orexin/hypocretin neurons through the cholecystokinin A receptor.

Orexin A and B are neuropeptides implicated in the regulation of sleep/wakefulness and energy homeostasis. The regulatory mechanism of the activity of orexin neurons is not precisely understood. Using transgenic mice in which orexin neurons specifically express yellow cameleon 2.1, we screened for factors that affect the activity of orexin neurons (a total of 21 peptides and six other factors w...
