Biological function summary

The orexin neuropeptides derived from the orexin prepro are important for regulating sleep-wake cycles appetite and arousal. While not part of a larger complex orexins are significant modulators of other neurotransmitter systems including noradrenaline dopamine and serotonin. These interactions influence many physiological functions further demonstrating the importance of orexins in maintaining overall body balance.

Pathways

Orexin prepro-derived neuropeptides engage in the sleep-wake regulation and energy homeostasis pathways. They interact directly with orexin receptors such as OX1R and OX2R to affect these pathways. The insulin signaling pathway also involves orexin peptides linking them with metabolic regulation. Other proteins such as leptin and ghrelin interact with orexins indicating the overlap of neuronal and metabolic pathways in which orexins play.
