The phosphorylated analogue of DSIP enhances slow wave sleep and paradoxical sleep in unrestrained rats. 1989

Continued 10-h nocturnal intracerebroventricular infusion of 0.5 nmol P-DSIP, the phosphorylated analogue of delta-sleep-inducing peptide (DSIP), significantly increased slow wave sleep (22%) and paradoxical sleep (81%) in unrestrained rats. The increase in the amount of sleep was largely due to an increase in the number of sleep episodes. Larger and smaller doses were ineffective in doses ranging from 0.025 to 25 nmol. The sleep-promoting potency of P-DSIP was 5 times greater than that of DSIP compared by the same assay.

D003701	Delta Sleep-Inducing Peptide	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.
