Orexin A (human, rat, mouse) (TFA)

Orexin A (human, rat, mouse) (Hypocretin-1 (human, rat, mouse) ) TFA, a 33 amino acid excitatory neuropeptide, orchestrates diverse central and peripheral processes. Orexin A (human, rat, mouse) TFA binds and activates two types of G protein-coupled receptors, the orexin-1 receptor (OX1R) and the orexin-2 receptor (OX2R) . Orexin A (human, rat, mouse) TFA has a role in the regulation of feeding behavior. Orexin A (human, rat, mouse) TFA is an effective anti-nociceptive and anti-hyperalgesic agent in mice and rats[1][2][3].
