"In The Orexin/Hypocretin System: Physiology and Pathophysiology, leading researchers and clinicians set the stage for further research on the loss of orexin/hypocretin neurons in humans, regulation of sleep and wakefulness by the orexin/hypocretin system, and the role of the or…
It has been found that orexin/hypocretin impairment results in narcolepsy and cataplexy in humans and animals, leading to the possibility of better means of diagnosis and treatment. In this collection of 27 papers, which includes contrasting findings and an overview of the resea…
