Target Information
Orexin is encoded by the HCRT gene in pigs. It has been detected in the endocrine pancreas of domestic animals. This naturally occurring neuropeptide and orexin isoform holds significance in various physiological functions. Notably, the orexinergic nucleus within the lateral hypothalamus serves as the primary orexin projection system in the brain. HCRT plays a pivotal role in regulating food intake, sleep-wake cycles, arterial blood pressure, heart rate, and sexual behavior. Orexins stimulate food intake and arousal. They bind and activate two G protein-coupled receptors: orexin receptor 1 (OX1R) and orexin receptor 2 (OX2R).
