Description: | Orexin A (Hypocretin-1) (human, rat, mouse) acetate is a hypothalamic neuropeptide with analgesic properties (crosses the blood-brain barrier). Orexin A (human, rat, mouse) acetate is also an OX1R agonist that induces the expression of BDNF and TH proteins in SH-SY5Y cells in a time- and dose-dependent manner. Orexin A (human, rat, mouse) acetate can be used in studies of appetite regulation, neurodegenerative diseases and modulation of injurious messaging[1][2][3]. |
