Narcolepsy

The role of Orexin (Hypocretin) in Narcolepsy and other disorders of Daytime Sleepiness.
The recent discovery that the Brain protein called Orexin was deficient in patients with Narcolepsy has led to a whirlwind of research in this area. The Edinburgh Sleep Centre is proud to announce that its team of doctors has been the first in the UK to confirm these findings in patients with narcolepsy. We have an active ongoing project to study the role of these peptides in patients with disorders of daytime sleepiness.
