Orexins are hypothalamic neuropeptides that were initially identified in the rat brain as
endogenous ligands for an (previously) orphan G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR). They …

To achieve energy balance and maintain a constant BW, changes in feed intake and energy
expenditure must be coordinated and tightly regulated. This may not hold true for some …

Orexin A and orexin B were initially identified as endogenous ligands for two orphan G
protein-coupled receptors [104]. They were initially recognized as regulators of feeding …

The orexin/hypocretin (ORX) system is involved in physiological processes such as feeding,
energy metabolism, and the control of sleep and wakefulness. The ORX system may drive …

The lateral hypothalamus is comprised of a heterogeneous mix of neurons that serve to
integrate and regulate sleep, feeding, stress, energy balance, reward, and motivated …

Orexin is a hypothalamic neuropeptide that is implicated in the regulation of feeding
behaviour and the sleep‐wakefulness cycle in mammals. However, in spite of a growing …

Orexin is a potent orexigenic neuropeptide implicated in feeding regulation of mammals.
However, except for the case of goldfish, the involvement of orexin in the feeding behavior of …

Although recently discovered, orexins have been rapidly established as important
neuropeptides in regulating physiological processes including food intake, sleep/wake …

Background The orexins (hypocretins) are a family of peptides found primarily in neurons in
the lateral hypothalamus. Although the orexinergic system is generally thought to be the …

From an experimental point of view, the retina is a neuroscientist's dream. While part of the
central nervous system, the retina is largely self-contained, and depending on the species, it …
