Orexin B, rat, mouse TFA
Based on 2 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Orexin B, rat, mouse (Rat orexin B) TFA is an endogenous orexin receptor agonist. Orexin B, rat, mouse TFA binds and activates two closely related orphan G protein-coupled receptors OX1-R and OX2-R. Orexin B, rat, mouse TFA stimulates food intake and energy expenditure and plays a significant role in sleep-wakefulness regulation.

Biological Activity
|
OX2 Receptor |
OX2 receptor is indeed a high-affinity receptor for human orexin B, with an IC50 of 36 nM in the binding assay and an EC50 of 60 nM in the [Ca2+]i transient assay. Human Orexin B has significantly lower affinity for the human OX1: the calculated IC50 in the competitive binding assay and the EC50 in the [Ca2+]i transient assay are 420 nM and 2500 nM for human orexin-B, respectively[2].
