Blockade of Orexin-1 Receptors Attenuates Orexin-2 Receptor Antagonism-Induced Sleep Promotion in the Rat

TL;DR: Results indicate that blockade of OX2R is sufficient to initiate and prolong sleep, consistent with the hypothesis of a deactivation of the histaminergic system.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pharmacological characterization of a novel centrally permeable P2X7 receptor antagonist: JNJ-47965567

TL;DR: JNJ‐47965567 is characterized, a centrally permeable, high‐affinity, selective P2X7 antagonist, which may play a key role in neuropsychiatry, neurodegeneration and chronic pain.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization of JNJ-42847922, a Selective Orexin-2 Receptor Antagonist, as a Clinical Candidate for the Treatment of Insomnia.

TL;DR: In a single ascending dose study conducted in healthy subjects, JNJ-42847922 increased somnolence and displayed a favorable pharmacokinetic and safety profile for a sedative/hypnotic, thus emerging as a promising candidate for further clinical development for the treatment of insomnia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neuropeptide S stimulates dopaminergic neurotransmission in the medial prefrontal cortex.
