Locus Coeruleus in Non-Mammalian Vertebrates

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2022
The locus coeruleus (LC) is a vertebrate-specific nucleus and the primary source of norepinephrine (NE) in the brain. This nucleus has conserved properties across species: highly homogeneous cell types, a small number of cells but extensive axonal ...

Microinjection of vasopressin into the locus coeruleus of conscious rats [PDF]

open access: yes, 1984
To determine whether vasopressin plays a role in central neural control of cardiovascular function by acting on the locus coeruleus we monitored arterial pressure and heart rate responses to graded injections of vasopressin (1-30 ng, 0.1-0.3 microliter ...

Combined Optogenetic Approaches Reveal Quantitative Dynamics of Endogenous Noradrenergic Transmission in the Brain

open access: yesiScience, 2020
Summary: Little is known about the real-time cellular dynamics triggered by endogenous catecholamine release despite their importance in brain functions. To address this issue, we expressed channelrhodopsin in locus coeruleus neurons and protein kinase-A

Locus coeruleus-noradrenergic modulation of trigeminal pain: Implications for trigeminal neuralgia and psychiatric comorbidities

open access: yesNeurobiology of Pain, 2023
Trigeminal neuralgia is the most common neuropathic pain involving the craniofacial region. Due to the complex pathophysiology, it is therapeutically difficult to manage.

Prefrontal Cortical Connectivity Mediates Locus Coeruleus Noradrenergic Regulation of Inhibitory Control in Older Adults

open access: yesJournal of Neuroscience, 2021
Response inhibition is a core executive function enabling adaptive behavior in dynamic environments. Human and animal models indicate that inhibitory control and control networks are modulated by noradrenaline, arising from the locus coeruleus.

The effects of footshock and immobilization stress on tyrosine hydroxylase phosphorylation in the rat locus coeruleus and adrenal gland [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Tyrosine hydroxylase (TH), the rate-limiting enzyme in catecholamine biosynthesis, is regulated acutely by protein phosphorylation. No studies have systematically investigated the time course of TH phosphorylation in vivo in response to different ...

Locus coeruleus norepinephrine activity mediates sensory-evoked awakenings from sleep

open access: yesScience Advances, 2020
Do noises wake you up at night? Blame your locus coeruleus. A defining feature of sleep is reduced responsiveness to external stimuli, but the mechanisms mediating sensory-evoked arousal remain unclear.

Organization of the Locus Coeruleus-Norepinephrine System [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The release of the neurotransmitter norepinephrine throughout the mammalian brain is important for modulating attention, arousal, and cognition during many behaviors.

Less locus coeruleus degeneration and its enhanced influence on neural circuit in Parkinson's tremor

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease
Objectives: The involvement of the locus coeruleus in Parkinson's tremor remains unclear. We aimed to decode the role of locus coeruleus in Parkinson's tremor. Methods: We used MRI to examine 120 Parkinson's disease, including 48 tremor-dominant (TD) and
