Orexin A (human rat mouse CAS 205640-90-0) is a hypothalamic neuropeptide composed of 33 amino acids functioning as an endogenous agonist at orexin-1 and orexin-2 receptors Binding to these G-protein coupled receptors orexin A regulates multiple physiological processes including appetite arousal states locomotion hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis activity and pain perception thresholds Preclinical studies have demonstrated that intravenous administration of orexin A (3 30 mg/kg) significantly increases paw withdrawal latency in thermal nociception assays suggestive of analgesic potential Hence orexin A serves as a useful tool for investigating neuroendocrine control mechanisms and corresponding therapeutic targets
