Cat. No. CSC-RG0909
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.
