The origins of excessive daytime sleepiness in Parkinson disease (PD) are unclear. The authors hypothesize that orexin neurons, a recently identified wake promoting system, could contribute to its pathophysiology. They measured orexin-A/hypocretin-1 concentration in ventricular CSF in 19 parkinsonian patients and compared it with neurologic controls. Orexin levels were lower in patients and decreased with the severity of the disease. The authors suggest that orexin neurons contribute to daytime sleepiness in late stage PD.
