| Background | The orexins (orexina-A and orexin-b) have a range of physiological functions including the control of feeding and energy metabolism, modulation of neuroendocrine function, and regulation of the sleep-wake cycle. The two orexin receptor subtypes OX1 and OX2 both mediate the action of orexin-A and orexin-B and couple efficiently through Gq/11 to activate phospholipase C and lead to elevation of intracellular calcium, though orexin-A is equipotent at OX1 and OX2, whilst orexin-B displays a moderate selectivity for OX2. |

| Safety Considerations |
The following safety precautions should be observed. 1. Use pipette aids to prevent ingestion and keep aerosols down to a minimum. 2. No eating, drinking or smoking while handling the stable line. 3. Wash hands after handling the stable line and before leaving the lab. 4. Decontaminate work surface with disinfectant or 70% ethanol before and after working with stable cells. 5. All waste should be considered hazardous. 6. Dispose of all liquid waste after each experiment and treat with bleach. |
