General description
Orexin B consists of an amidated C-terminus and shares 46% sequence identity with orexin-A, mainly in the C-terminal region. Orexin-B is proteolytically cleaved from the precursor prepro-orexin.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Orexin-A and Orexin-B are orexigenic peptides that mediate their effects via two receptors, the orexin-1 receptor (OX1R) and the orexin-2 receptor (OX2R). Orexins are involved in food intake, obesity regulation, energy homeostasis, and differentiation.

Orexin-A and orexin-B, via their receptors orexin-1 receptor (OX1R) and orexin-2 receptor (OX2R) have been shown to play a role in the regulation of feeding, body weight, and energy expenditure. Adipose tissue also contributes significantly to the maintenance of body

The neuropeptides orexin A and B (also known as hypocretins) play an important role in many physiological and behavioral activities. Orexins are ligands of two closely related G-protein-coupled receptors, that are the named orexin 1 and orexin 2 receptors. To

THE SLEEP SEQUENCE: i) non-REM sleep, ii) REM sleep, and iii) wakefulness, is stable and widely preserved in mammals, but the underlying mechanisms are unknown. It has been shown that this sequence is disrupted by sudden REM sleep onset during
