Hypocretin‐1/Hypocretin Receptor 1 Regulates Neuroplasticity and Cognitive Function through Hippocampal Lactate Homeostasis in Depressed Model [PDF]

open access: yesAdvanced Science
Cognitive dysfunction is not only a common symptom of major depressive disorder, but also a more common residual symptom after antidepressant treatment and a risk factor for chronic and recurrent disease.

Hypocretin: a promising target for the regulation of homeostasis [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience
Hypocretin, also known as orexin, is a hypothalamic neuropeptide that regulates essential physiological processes including arousal, energy metabolism, feeding behavior, and emotional states.

Sexually Dimorphic Changes of Hypocretin (Orexin) in Depression

open access: yesEBioMedicine, 2017
Background: Neurophysiological and behavioral processes regulated by hypocretin (orexin) are severely affected in depression. However, alterations in hypocretin have so far not been studied in the human brain. We explored the hypocretin system changes in

Hypocretin Levels in Sporadic and Familial Cases of Canine Narcolepsy

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2001
Familial and sporadic forms of narcolepsy exist in both humans and canines. Mutations in the hypocretin receptor 2 gene (Hcrtr 2) cause canine familial narcolepsy.

Effects of Traumatic Brain Injury on the Orexin/Hypocretin System [PDF]

open access: yesNeurotrauma Reports
Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBIs) are known to cause a myriad of symptoms in patients. One common symptom after injury is sleep disruptions. One neuropeptide system has been studied repeatedly as a potential cause of sleep disruptions after TBI- the orexin/

Hypocretin (Orexin) Replacement Therapies

open access: yesMedicine in Drug Discovery, 2020
Twenty-two years after their discovery, the hypocretins (Hcrts), also known as orexins, are two of the most studied peptidergic systems, involved in myriad physiological systems that range from sleep, arousal, motivation, homeostatic regulation, fear ...

Inclusion of hypocretin-1 improved performance of poor sleep quality prediction for elderly patients with acute ischemic stroke: a prospective cohort study [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience
BackgroundHypocretin-1 is a vital neurotransmitter in regulating the sleep–wake cycle and provides neuroprotection against cerebral ischemia. We aims to develop a poor sleep quality predictive model for elderly population with acute ischemic stroke ...

The role of orexins/hypocretins in alcohol use and abuse: an appetitive-reward relationship [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2012
Orexins (hypocretins) are neuropeptides synthesized in neurons located in the lateral, perifornical and dorsomedial hypothalamus. These neurons innervate many regions in the brain and modulate multiple other neurotransmitter systems. As a result of these

Diurnal fluctuation in the number of hypocretin/orexin and histamine producing: Implication for understanding and treating neuronal loss. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The loss of specific neuronal phenotypes, as determined by immunohistochemistry, has become a powerful tool for identifying the nature and cause of neurological diseases. Here we show that the number of neurons identified and quantified using this method
