Difference between Hypocretin (orexin) receptor 1 and Narcolepsy

Hypocretin (orexin) receptor 1 vs. Narcolepsy

Orexin receptor type 1 (Ox1R or OX1), also known as hypocretin receptor type 1 (HcrtR1), is a protein that in humans is encoded by the HCRTR1 gene. Narcolepsy is a long-term neurological disorder that involves a decreased ability to regulate sleep-wake cycles.

Similarities between Hypocretin (orexin) receptor 1 and Narcolepsy

Hypocretin (orexin) receptor 1 and Narcolepsy have 4 things in common (in Unionpedia): Lateral hypothalamus, Orexin receptor, Orexin-A, Suvorexant.

Lateral hypothalamus

The lateral hypothalamus, also called the lateral hypothalamic area, contains the primary orexinergic nucleus within the hypothalamus that widely projects throughout the nervous system; this system of neurons mediates an array of cognitive and physical processes, such as promoting feeding behavior and arousal, reducing pain perception, and regulating body temperature, digestive functions, and blood pressure, among many others.

Orexin receptor

The orexin receptor (also referred to as the hypocretin receptor) is a G-protein-coupled receptor that binds the neuropeptide orexin.
