Sodium Oxybate Alters Sleep Architecture and Reduces Emotional Selectivity in Memory‐Related Responses

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sleep supports memory consolidation. Non‐rapid eye movement (NREM) and rapid eye movement (REM) sleep have been proposed to support, respectively, declarative memory consolidation and the integration of the memory affective dimension. Here, we used sodium oxybate (SXB) to modify the NREM/REM proportion during one sleep night and assessed ...

Comparing the Effect of Microinjection of Angiotensin II and Captopril to the Locus Coeruleus on Morphine Withdrawal Signs in Rat

open access: yesمجله دانشکده پزشکی اصفهان, 2009
Background: Locus coeruleus is one of important involved sites in morphine withdrawal signs, contains high densities of Angiotensin II receptor binding sites.

Neuroinflammation and noradrenergic modulation with β2-adrenoceptors: Emerging therapeutic targets for Parkinson’s diseases

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research
Neurodegenerative disorders, such as Parkinson’s disease, are strongly influenced by neuroinflammatory processes and dysfunction of the locus coeruleus-noradrenergic system.

Impaired Alertness Correlates With Chronic Anxiety: A Prospective Tertiary University Centre Cohort

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Maintenance of Wakefulness Test (MWT) is a widely used objective measure of daytime alertness, especially in patients with sleep disorders at increased risk of accidents. Anxiety and depression are common in this population and may influence subjective sleepiness and objective alertness.

Locus Coeruleus-Norepinephrine System: Spheres of Influence and Contribution to the Development of Neurodegenerative Diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioscience-Landmark
Locus coeruleus is a small bilateral nucleus in the brainstem. It is the main source of norepinephrine (noradrenaline) throughout the central nervous system (about 70% of all norepinephrine in the central nervous system), and, as shown in numerous ...

All Is Relative—A Call for Considering “Physiologically Informed” Control Conditions to Improve the Mechanistic Understanding of the Effects of Physical Exercise on Cognition

open access: yesScandinavian Journal of Psychology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT There is a growing interest in elucidating the mechanisms that drive the benefits of physical exercise on cognitive performance. A key element for a better understanding of a particular phenomenon (e.g., the mediators of the exercise‐cognition interaction) is the selection of an appropriate control condition/group as the basis for causal ...

Modulating cortical excitability and cortical arousal by pupil self-regulation

open access: yesNature Communications
The brain’s arousal state (i.e., central arousal) is regulated by multiple neuromodulatory nuclei in the brainstem and significantly influences high-level cognitive processes.

Locus Coeruleus-Norepinephrine Modulation of Sensory Processing and Perception: A Focused Review

open access: yesNeuroscience and Biobehavioral Reviews, 2019
The locus coeruleus-norepinephrine (LC-NE) system is involved in many brain functions and neurological disorders. In this review we discuss how LC-NE signaling affects the activity of cortical and subcortical sensory neurons, and how it influences ...

The locus coeruleus

open access: yes
Alzheimer’s disease is a common form of dementia that impairs memory and thinking, usually later in life. Years before symptoms appear, harmful proteins start to build up in the brain. This early phase, called the preclinical stage, offers an opportunity to detect and address the disease before significant damage occurs.
