introduction: it has been shown that orexin peptides have a role in opioid withdrawal behaviors. orexin-expressing neurons that are present in the hypothalamic nuclei send dense projections to the locus coeruleus (lc). withdrawal syndrome is temporally associated with hyperactivity of lc neurons. however, lc neurons do not show withdrawalinduced hyperactivity in the brain slices from morphine-d...

Objective(s): Intracerebroventricular injection of orexin-A (hypocretin-1) antagonist has been shown to inhibit stress-induced analgesia. However the locations of central sites that may mediate these effects have not been totally demonstrated. This study was performed to investigate the role of rostral ventromedial medulla (RVM) orexin receptor 1 in stress-induced analgesia (SIA). Materials and...

introduction: epilepsy is a neural disorder in which abnormal plastic changes during short and long term periods lead to increased excitability of brain tissue. kindling is an animal model of epileptogenesis which results in changes of synaptic plasticity due to repetitive electrical or chemical sub-convulsive stimulations of the brain. lateral hypothalamus, as the main niche of orexin neurons ...
