Application

SB-408124 was used to block orexin A-mediated cardiovascular effects in rats. It was used to study block the increase of endogenous glucose production mediated by bicuculline in rats.

Biochem/physiol Actions

SB-408124 blocks the orexin type 1 receptor that stimulates the production of stress hormone in hypothalamus. It blocks orexin A-induced increase in arterial pressure and elevation of heart rate in rats. SB-408124 modulates phrenic nerve activity that is important in respiration.
SB 408124 is an OX1 orexin receptor antagonist.

Release of hypocretins (orexins) by neurons in the lateral hypothalamus is an important contributor to arousal state, thermoregulation, feeding behavior, and has recently been proposed to play a role in breathing and central chemosensitivity. Using the in situ arterially perfused

Hypocretin/orexin acts pharmacologically in the hypothalamus to stimulate stress hormone secretion at least in part by an action in the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus, where the peptide's receptors have been localized. In addition, orexin acts in the brain to increase sympathetic

The hypothalamic neuropeptide orexin influences (feeding) behavior as well as energy metabolism. Administration of exogenous orexin-A into the brain has been shown to increase both food intake and blood glucose levels. In the present study, we investigated the role of

Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are abundant in mammalian brain and some show age-dependent expression patterns. Here, we report that circGRIA1, a conserved circRNA isoform derived from the genomic loci of α-mino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole propionic acid (AMPA) receptor subunit Gria1, shows an age-related and
