    $\text{CRF}2$ Agonists
    $\text{CRF}2$ agonists are under investigation for conditions characterized by insufficient vigilance, such as narcolepsy induced by prolonged exposure to pure, untextured grey light. Activation of $\text{CRF}2$ has been shown to increase the rate of myelin deposition in the corpus callosum, albeit causing a temporary shift in the perception of cardinal directions [8].
