Rats were intracerebroventricularly (ICV) administered selective orexin-2 receptor antagonist, TCS-OX2-29. There was decreased wakefulness due to a decrease in the average wake episode duration and an increased REM sleep due to an increase in the number of REM episodes, indicating an inhibitory role of the central orexin-2 receptors on REM sleep generation.Copyright © 2012 Elsevier B.V.
