The Dual Orexin/Hypocretin Receptor Antagonist, Almorexant, in the Ventral Tegmental Area Attenuates Ethanol Self-Administration
Recent studies have implicated the hypocretin/orexinergic system in reward-seeking behavior. Almorexant, a dual orexin/hypocretin R(1) and R(2) receptor antagonist, has proven effective in preclinical studies in promoting sleep in animal models and was in Phase III clinical trials for sleep disorder...
