Risks Associated With Benzodiazepine Long‐Term Use in Chronic Insomnia: A Systematic Review and (Network) Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This systematic literature review evaluated the risks of using benzodiazepine medications for more than 3 months in adults with chronic insomnia. Chronic insomnia is defined as ongoing dissatisfaction with sleep quantity or quality, causing significant distress and impaired functioning during the day.

Lights On or Off? The Efficacy of Light Therapy as Add‐On to Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for Insomnia—A Pilot Study

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cognitive behavioural therapy for insomnia (CBT‐I) is recommended as first‐line treatment for insomnia disorder. However, around 25% of the patients do not respond to the treatment, and only 40% achieve full remission. The current study investigates the therapeutic potential of light therapy as an add‐on to CBT‐I.

Orexin/hypocretin receptor signalling cascades [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, 2013
Orexin (hypocretin) peptides and their two known G‐protein‐coupled receptors play essential roles in sleep–wake control and powerfully influence other systems regulating appetite/metabolism, stress and reward. Consequently, drugs that influence signalling by these receptors may provide novel therapeutic opportunities for treating sleep disorders ...

COVID‐19–Induced Narcolepsy Type I With Cataplexy: A Short Report

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Narcolepsy type I is a rare neurological sleep disorder characterised by chronic excessive daytime sleepiness, cataplexy, and low orexin (hypocretin) levels. Infection with SARS‐CoV‐2 has been linked to neurological and neuropsychiatric sequelae, but cases of post‐COVID narcolepsy remain extremely uncommon.

Inhibition of orexin-1/hypocretin-1 receptors inhibits yohimbine-induced reinstatement of ethanol and sucrose seeking in Long–Evans rats

open access: yes, 2008
\ud RATIONALE:\ud \ud Previous studies have shown that orexin-1/hypocretin-1 receptors play a role in self-administration and cue-induced reinstatement of food, drug, and ethanol seeking.

Integration of cortical inputs in the lateral hypothalamus is dominated by the medial prefrontal cortex

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend The lateral hypothalamus (LH) is a critical controller of innate behaviours such as feeding. It is anatomically connected to specific cortical areas. We mapped these areas using a combination of retrograde tracing and anterograde optogenetic circuit mapping.

Selective loss of GABAB receptors in orexin/hypocretin-producing neurons results in disrupted sleep/wakefulness architecture

open access: yes, 2007
We generated mice with a selective loss of GABAB receptors in orexin neurons. Orexin neurons in these GABAB1<sup>-/-(orexin)</sup> mice showed reduced responsiveness to GABA<sub>A</sub> receptor agonists due to a ...
