Discriminating depression, physical and social anhedonia by neurotransmitter related challenge tests [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The aim of this study was to investigate, if anhedonia, a salient component of depression, shows similar response patterns to neurotransmitter challenge tests as depression, and if the two questionnaire based components Physical (PA) and Social (SA ...

Sex-dependent noradrenergic modulation of premotor cortex during decision-making

open access: yeseLife, 2023
Rodent premotor cortex (M2) integrates information from sensory and cognitive networks for action planning during goal-directed decision-making. M2 function is regulated by cortical inputs and ascending neuromodulators, including norepinephrine (NE ...

Neurobiological Mechanisms That Contribute to Stress-related Cocaine Use [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The ability of stressful life events to trigger drug use is particularly problematic for the management of cocaine addiction due to the unpredictable and often uncontrollable nature of stress.

The inhibition of the dorsal paragigantocellular reticular nucleus induces waking and the activation of all adrenergic and noradrenergic neurons: a combined pharmacological and functional neuroanatomical study. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
GABAergic neurons specifically active during paradoxical sleep (PS) localized in the dorsal paragigantocellular reticular nucleus (DPGi) are known to be responsible for the cessation of activity of the noradrenergic neurons of the locus coeruleus during ...

Gulf War Syndrome: A role for organophosphate induced plasticity of locus coeruleus neurons [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Gulf War syndrome is a chronic multi-symptom illness that has affected about a quarter of the deployed veterans of the 1991 Gulf War. Exposure to prolonged low-level organophosphate insecticides and other toxic chemicals is now thought to be responsible.

Neuropsychological correlates of opioid dependence and withdrawal [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Severity of opioid dependence, and performance on two successive runs of the Wisconsin Card Sorting Test (WCST), were assessed in 39 right-handed male and female methadone patients who had been randomly assigned to either a recently dosed (n=21) or 24 hr

Age differences in diffusivity in the locus coeruleus and its ascending noradrenergic tract

open access: yesNeuroImage, 2022
The noradrenergic locus coeruleus (LC) is a small brainstem nucleus that promotes arousal and attention. Recent studies have examined the microstructural properties of the LC using diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging and found unexpected age ...
