Table 1. Summary of orexin measures after repeated stress.
Stress paradigm | Orexin measure | orexin levels after stress | Citation |
---|---|---|---|
Repeated restraint (30min/day × 5 days) |
Levels in CSF Orexin Neuron Activity (Orx/cFos) |
Decreased Decreased |
Grafe et al., 2017a |
Repeated restraint (2 h/day × 14 days) |
Orexin mRNA in Amygdala | Increased | Kim et al., 2015 |
Repeated social defeat (Defeat 15 min, sensory contact up to 30 min × 7 days) |
Orexin mRNA in LH | Decreased in Resilient Rats compared to Vulnerable Rats | Grafe et al., 2018 |
Repeated social defeat (Defeat 5min/day, sensory contact for rest of 24 h × 10 days) |
Orexin mRNA in LH | Decreased in Resilient Rats compared to Vulnerable Rats | Chung et al., 2014 |
Repeated social defeat (Defeat 30 min/day × 5 days) |
Orexin A & B peptide in mPFC, VTA, and LH | Decreased | Nocjar et al., 2012 |
