Explanation Orexin A human, rat, mouse, a 33 amino acid excitatory neuropeptide, orchestrates diverse central and peripheral processes. Orexin A human, rat, mouse is a specific, high-affinity agonist for G-protein-coupled receptor OX1R. Orexin A human, rat, mouse has a role in the regulation of feeding behavior. Orexin A human, rat, mouse is an effective anti-nociceptive and anti-hyperalgesic agent in mice and rats.
Activity Agonist
Solubility Soluble to 1 mg/ml in water
BiologicalActivity Endogenous agonist at orexin receptors (Ki values are 20 and 38 nM for OX1 and OX2 receptors respectively). Stimulates feeding following central administration and may be involved in the control of sleep-wake cycle and other hypothalamic functions.
