Herget, Ulrich Tran, Steven Singh, Chanpreet Oikonomou, Grigorios Ryu, Soojin Rotllant, Josep Prober, David A Classical studies identified a critical role for the hypothalamus in regulating sleep and wake states, but few such hypothalamic neuronal populations have been identified. Here we describe a sleep-promoting population of hypothalamic neurons that expresses the neuropeptides QRFP and parathyroid hormone 4 (Pth4) in zebrafish.
