Orexin A and Orexin Receptor 1 axonal traffic in dorsal roots at the CNS/PNS interface

Hypothalamic orexin/hypocretin neurons send long axonal projections through the dorsal spinal cord in lamina I-II of the dorsal horn at the interface with the peripheral nervous system (PNS). We show that in the dorsal horn OXA fibers colocalize with substance P (SP) positive afferents of dorsal roo...
