Noradrenergic dysfunction in Alzheimer's disease [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2015
The brain noradrenergic system supplies the neurotransmitter norepinephrine throughout the brain via widespread efferent projections, and plays a pivotal role in modulating cognitive activities in the cortex.

The Noradrenergic System in Parkinson’s Disease [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2020
Nowadays it is well accepted that in Parkinson’s disease (PD), the neurodegenerative process occurs in stages and that damage to other areas precedes the neuronal loss in the substantia nigra pars compacta, which is considered a pathophysiological ...

Noradrenergic modulation of arousal [PDF]

open access: yesBrain Research Reviews, 2008
Through a highly divergent efferent projection system, the locus coeruleus-noradrenergic system supplies norepinephrine throughout the central nervous system. State-dependent neuronal discharge activity of locus coeruleus neurons has long-suggested a role of this system in the induction of an alert waking state.

Noradrenergic Source of Dopamine Assessed by Microdialysis in the Medial Prefrontal Cortex

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2020
Previous results indicate that dopamine (DA) release in the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) is modified by α2 adrenoceptor- but not D2 DA receptor- agonists and antagonists, suggesting that DA measured by microdialysis in the mPFC originates from ...

Simulation of cholinergic and noradrenergic modulation of behavior in uncertain environments

open access: yesFrontiers in Computational Neuroscience, 2012

Perioperative Sedation and Sympatholysis Due to Tizanidine [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2020
Tizanidine is a short acting central muscle relaxant. It has agonist activity at noradrenergic alpha 2 receptors and inhibits the excitatory (presynaptic) motor neurons at both the spinal and supraspinal levels.

A mechanism linking perinatal 2,3,7,8 tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin exposure to lower urinary tract dysfunction in adulthood

open access: yesDisease Models & Mechanisms, 2021
Benign prostatic hyperplasia/lower urinary tract dysfunction (LUTD) affects nearly all men. Symptoms typically present in the fifth or sixth decade and progressively worsen over the remainder of life. Here, we identify a surprising origin of this disease

Associations between the use of β-adrenoceptor acting drugs and the risk of dementia in older population

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2022
ObjectiveAge-related decline within the noradrenergic system is associated with reduced cognition. The β-adrenoceptors are widely expressed in the brain as well as in the peripheral.

Depression and/or PTSD Comorbidity Affects Response to Antidepressants in Those With Alcohol Use Disorder

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychiatry, 2022
Objective: Depression and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) highly co-occur with alcohol use disorder (AUD). The comparative effects of noradrenergic vs.
