Characterization of NPR-14 in the Regulation of Sleep-Like Behaviour in Caenorhabditis elegans

Sleep-like quiescence is an evolutionarily conserved state essential for physiological homeostasis; however, its dysregulation can lead to sleep disorders such as narcolepsy, which can be caused by abnormal neuropeptide signaling.
