Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-Orexin B antibody [MM0501-5G21] (AB89888)
Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) analysis of human placental tissue section (4μm) labelling Orexin B with ab89888. Tissue was treated with 15μg/ml Protenase K for antigen retrieval and fixed with 4% PFA. A HRP-conjugated anti-mouse IgG was used as the secondary antibody (30 minutes at room temperature) followed by DAB color development.

Biological function summary
Orexin B influences wakefulness energy metabolism and appetite regulation. It does not function alone but as part of the broader orexin neuropeptide system which includes orexin A and their respective receptors forming a regulatory network. The actions of orexin B impact the arousal system effectively enhancing alertness when appropriately activated. The neuropeptide's modulation of the sleep-wake cycle and feeding behaviors indicates its relevance in maintaining critical homeostatic circuits within the central nervous system.
Pathways
Orexin B is significantly involved in the sleep-wake cycle and feeding regulatory pathways. Within these pathways orexin B interacts closely with neurotransmitters and receptors like norepinephrine and the HCRTR2 receptor. This interaction supports its role in maintaining wakefulness and energy balance. During activation orexin B influences the locus coeruleus an important site of noradrenergic neuron activity linking it to broader neurophysiological processes critical to arousal and stress response mechanisms.
