deficiency of Hypocretin/orexin NT system in hypothalamus is responsible for symptoms of Narcolepsy.
hypocretin causes Gprotein activation....this leads to increase in Ach release in pontine reticular formation causing arousal.also stimulates appetite n feeding. mutation of hypocretin gene impares protein transport n processing.
