Description

Human Orexin ELISA Kit

Orexin is also known as the brain's wakefulness-promoting peptide, which is released by neurons in the hypothalamus. Orexin has been shown to be involved in cognitive functions such as memory, learning, and attention. It also regulates emotions and stress reactivity. In addition to these functions, orexin has been found to have an inhibitory effect on appetite and food intake; it also has anti-inflammatory properties. Orexin is involved with the process of sleep, wakefulness, and arousal. When it's released, it signals to other brain cells to increase their activity. For this reason, orexin has been used as a marker for wakefulness and sleepiness.
