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
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.

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 ...

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.

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]
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.

The involvement of the locus coeruleus in memory
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.

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 ...
