摘要
Stress shortens sodium pentobarbital (PbNa)-induced sleeping time through corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) in rats. We investigated whether this effect of brain CRH is mediated by CRH receptor type 1 (CRHR1) using a non-peptidic CRHR1 antagonist in rats. A 60 min period of restraint significantly shortened PbNa-induced sleeping time. This shortening was completely reversed by peripheral administration of CRHR1 antagonist. These results suggest that the stress-induced increase in arousal is mediated by CRHR1. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.
