Abstract
Histaminergic and orexin/hypocretin systems are components in the brain wake promoting system. Both are affected in the sleep disorder narcolepsy, but the role of histamine in narcolepsy is unclear. The histaminergic neurons are activated by the orexin/hypocretin system in rodents, and the development of the orexin/hypocretin neurons is bidirectionally regulated by the histaminergic system in zebrafish. This review summarizes the current knowledge of the interactions of these two systems in normal and pathological conditions in humans and different animal models.
