Preferred Label : delta sleep-inducing peptide;
MeSH definition : A nonapeptide that is found in neurons, peripheral organs, and plasma. This neuropeptide
induces mainly delta sleep in mammals. In addition to sleep, the peptide has been
observed to affect electrophysiological activity, neurotransmitter levels in the brain,
circadian and locomotor patterns, hormonal levels, psychological performance, and
the activity of neuropharmacological drugs including their withdrawal.;
