AbstractOrexin is a hypothalamic neuropeptide that is implicated in the regulation of feeding behaviour and the sleep‐wakefulness cycle in mammals. However, in spite of a growing body of knowledge concerning orexin in mammals, the orexin system and its function have not been well studied in lower vertebrates. In the present study, we first examined the effect of feeding status on the orexin‐like immunoreactivity (orexin‐LI) and the expression of orexin mRNA in the goldfish brain. The number of cells showing orexin‐LI in the hypothalamus of goldfish brain showed a significant increase in fasted fish and a significant decrease in glucose‐injected fish. The expression level of orexin mRNA in the brains of fasted fish increased compared to that of fed fish. We also examined the effect of an i.c.v. injection of orexin or an anti‐orexin serum on food intake and locomotor activity in the goldfish. Administration of orexin by i.c.v. injection induced a significant increase of food intake and locomotor activity, whereas i.p. injection of glucose or i.c.v. injection of anti‐orexin serum decreased food consumption. These results indicate that the orexin functions as an orexigenic factor in the goldfish brain.

Base Score Contribution
0.736
From this paper's citation signal
Citation Network Contribution
3.4
From 95 citing papers with measurable signal
Ranked by citation count — the same ordering the engine uses when summing log1p(Cq) over citers.
DataRank blends this paper's own citation count with the influence of the papers that cite it. Here, roughly 18% comes from its base citations and 82% from the citation network (95 citing papers contributed measurable signal).
Citers are pulled from OpenAlex sorted by cited_by_count:descand capped per paper, so when the cap binds we keep the highest-signal references and the score is reproducible across reruns.
