Hypocretin stimulates [ ( 35 ) S ] GTP gamma S binding in Hcrtr 2 transfected cell lines and in brain homogenate . ^^^ In vitro functional analyses of hypocretin / orexin receptor systems were performed using [ ( 125 ) 1 ] hypocretin radioreceptor and hypocretin stimulated [ ( 35 ) S ] GTP gamma S binding assay in cell lines expressing human or canine ( wild type and narcoleptic mutation ) hypocretin receptor 2 ( Hcrtr 2 ) . ^^^ Hypocretin 2 stimulated [ ( 35 ) S ] GTP gamma S binding in human and canine Hcrtr 2 expressing cell lines , while cell lines expressing the mutated canine Hcrtr 2 did not exhibit specific binding for [ ( 125 ) 1 ] hypocretin or hypocretin stimulated [ ( 35 ) S ] GTP gamma S . ^^^
