Optogenetic and pharmacological interventions link hypocretin neurons to impulsivity in mice
Optogenetic or pharmacological modulation of hypocretin neurons impacts mouse impulsivity in a Go/No-Go task, suggesting that these neurons play a key role in integrating salient stimuli and guiding responses to various environmental cues. Neurons in the

STUDY OBJECTIVES The diagnosis of narcolepsy type 1 (NT1) is based upon the presence of cataplexy and/or a cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) hypocretin-1/orexin-A level ≤110 pg/mL.

Narcolepsy, autoimmunity, and influenza A H1N1 vaccination [PDF]
Narcolepsy is a rare neurological disorder characterized by excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) with or without cataplexy. A main pathophysiology of narcolepsy is hypocretin deficiency in the central nervous system resulting from a selective loss of ...

Progress of autonomic disturbances in narcolepsy type 1
Narcolepsy type 1 is a kind of sleep disorder characterized by a specific loss of hypocretin neurons in the lateral hypothalamus and reduced levels of hypocretin-1 in the cerebrospinal fluid.

Neurons Containing Hypocretin (Orexin) Project to Multiple Neuronal Systems
The novel neuropeptides called hypocretins (orexins) have recently been identified as being localized exclusively in cell bodies in a subregion of the tuberal part of the hypothalamus.

Sleep Problems in Narcolepsy and the Role of Hypocretin/Orexin Deficiency.
Since its description in the 19th century, narcolepsy type 1 (NT1) has been considered as a model sleep disorder, and after the discovery of rapid eye movement (REM) sleep onset in the disorder, a gateway to understanding REM sleep.

Narcolepsy with intermediate cerebrospinal level of hypocretin-1.
STUDY OBJECTIVES To describe the phenotype of narcolepsy with intermediate cerebrospinal hypocretin-1 levels (CSF hcrt-1). METHODS From 1600 consecutive patients with narcolepsy from Bologna and Montpellier sleep centers we selected patients with ...

Hypocretin/Orexin Interactions with Norepinephrine Contribute to the Opiate Withdrawal Syndrome
We previously found that human heroin addicts and mice chronically exposed to morphine exhibit a significant increase in the number of detected hypocretin/orexin (Hcrt)-producing neurons. However, it remains unknown how this increase affects target areas
