Orexin B, rat, mouse is an endogenous agonist at Orexin receptor with Kis of 420 and 36 nM for OX1 and OX2, respectively.

Orexin B is a neuropeptide that is produced by a small group of neurons in the hypothalamus, a region of the brain that plays a critical role in regulating various physiological functions, including sleep, appetite, and energy balance. Orexin B, also known as hypocretin-2, plays a role in promoting wakefulness and arousal. Studies have shown that disruptions in the orexin system are associated with various sleep disorders, including narcolepsy and insomnia. In addition, orexin B has been shown to be involved in the regulation of appetite and energy metabolism, and is being explored as a potential target for the treatment of obesity and other metabolic disorders. Therefore, orexin B is an important neuropeptide and is an active area of research in neuroscience and medicine.
