Orexin A and B (hypocretin 1 and 2) are the endogenous ligands of orexin receptors, a G-protein-coupled orphan receptor family containing orexin 1 (OX1) and orexin 2 (OX2) types.
The effects of orexin A and B were abolished by their respective antibodies, but not by naloxone, and were attenuated by suramin and strychnine, the P2X purinergic and glycine receptor antagonists, respectively.
