A53T-α-synuclein overexpression in murine locus coeruleus induces Parkinson’s disease-like pathology in neurons and glia

open access: yesActa Neuropathologica Communications, 2018
Degeneration of noradrenergic locus coeruleus neurons occurs during the prodromal phase of Parkinson’s disease and contributes to a variety of non-motor symptoms, e.g. depression, anxiety and REM sleep behavior disorder.

Locus coeruleus pathology in progressive supranuclear palsy, and its relation to disease severity

open access: yesActa Neuropathologica Communications, 2020
The locus coeruleus is the major source of noradrenaline to the brain and contributes to a wide range of physiological and cognitive functions including arousal, attention, autonomic control, and adaptive behaviour.

Infraslow noradrenergic locus coeruleus activity fluctuations are gatekeepers of the NREM–REM sleep cycle

open access: yesNature Neuroscience
The noradrenergic locus coeruleus (LC) regulates arousal levels during wakefulness, but its role in sleep remains unclear. Here, we show in mice that fluctuating LC neuronal activity partitions non-rapid-eye-movement sleep (NREMS) into two brain ...

Tonic and burst-like locus coeruleus stimulation distinctly shift network activity across the cortical hierarchy

open access: yesNature Neuroscience
Noradrenaline (NA) release from the locus coeruleus (LC) changes activity and connectivity in neuronal networks across the brain, modulating multiple behavioral states. NA release is mediated by both tonic and burst-like LC activity.

Effects of Noninvasive Cervical Vagal Nerve Stimulation on Cognitive Performance But Not Brain Activation in Healthy Adults

open access: yesNeuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2020
Abstract Objectives While preliminary evidence suggests that noninvasive vagal nerve stimulation (nVNS) may enhance cognition, to our knowledge, no study has directly assessed the effects of nVNS on brain function and cognitive performance in healthy individuals.

Locus coeruleus stimulation modulates olfactory bulb evoked potentials [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
Field-evoked potentials from the main olfactory bulb in response to stimulation of the olfactory nerve and lateral olfactory tract were measured without and with conditioning stimulation of the locus coeruleus noradrenergic system.

Lower novelty-related locus coeruleus function is associated with Aβ-related cognitive decline in clinically healthy individuals

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Older individuals exhibiting diminished function of the locus coeruleus while learning new information show faster cognitive decline that is typical for Alzheimer’s disease.

The involvement of the locus coeruleus in memory

open access: yesBehavioral and Neural Biology, 1981
The effects on memory of electrolytic lesions in the locus coeruleus complex (LC) were investigated in three experiments using Swiss mice. Forebrain norepinephrine (NE) levels and histological analysis of lesion sites were used to verify lesion adequacy.

Miniaturized Bidirectional Thermal Stimulation System Integrated With an Electrode Array for Recording Neural Activities

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents a miniaturized bidirectional thermal stimulation system integrated with an electrode array enabling real‐time, bidirectional modulation and simultaneous recording of neural activity through localized heating and cooling. By monolithic integration of the Peltier element and with a silicon neural probe, the innovative system allows ...

The effects of exogenous melatonin on morphological changes in locus ceruleus nucleus Characterized by REM sleep deprivation

open access: yesOtorhinolaryngology and Facial Plastic Surgery, 2017
Background: Neurodegeneration in the locus coeruleus (LC) has been documented in several central nervous system (CNS) neurodegenerative diseases and sleep deprivation.
