Orexin Deficiency in Narcolepsy: Molecular Mechanisms, Clinical Phenotypes, and Emerging Therapeutic Frontiers

open access: yesBrain and Behavior, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.
Orexin deficiency drives narcolepsy Type 1, leading to excessive daytime sleepiness, cataplexy, and REM intrusions. This review highlights recent advances (2023–2025) in molecular mechanisms, diagnostics, and emerging orexin‐targeted therapies with the potential for disease modification.

Recent advances in narcolepsy

open access: yesAdvances in Clinical Neuroscience & Rehabilitation, 2016
Narcolepsy is thought to affect 0.05% of Caucasian populations and frequently causes severe symptoms across the 24-hour period. It is best viewed as a disorder of sleep-wake regulation with particular abnormalities of the rapid eye movement (REM ...

The Future of Parasomnias

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, Volume 34, Issue 5, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Parasomnias are abnormal behaviours or mental experiences during sleep or the sleep–wake transition. As disorders of arousal (DOA) or REM sleep behaviour disorder (RBD) can be difficult to capture in the sleep laboratory and may need to be diagnosed in large communities, new home diagnostic devices are being developed, including actigraphy ...

Present and Future of Central Disorders of Hypersomnolence

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, Volume 34, Issue 5, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Central disorders of hypersomnolence (CDH) are rare neurological conditions lumped by excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) as primary complaint mostly arising at young age, including narcolepsy type 1 (NT1), narcolepsy type 2 (NT2), idiopathic hypersomnia (IH), and Kleine‐Levin syndrome (KLS). Advances in clinical and translational research have

Drug‐induced increase in lysobisphosphatidic acid reduces the cholesterol overload in Niemann–Pick type C cells and mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Most cells acquire cholesterol by endocytosis of circulating lowdensity lipoproteins (LDLs). After cholesteryl ester de-esterification in endosomes, free cholesterol is redistributed to intracellular membranes via unclear mechanisms.

Microstructural Changes in the Tuberal Hypothalamus Correlate with Daytime Sleepiness in Lewy Body Disorders

open access: yesMovement Disorders, Volume 40, Issue 9, Page 1919-1929, September 2025.
Abstract Background Excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) is a disabling symptom of Lewy body disorders (LBD). The hypothalamus is a key sleep–wake regulator and is involved in Lewy pathology, but its contribution to EDS in LBD remains unclear. Objectives To use diffusion‐weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to detect hypothalamic microstructure and ...
