Norepinephrine Involvment in Penile Detumescence [PDF]
Adrenergic neurotransmission was studied in dogs. Blood samples for catecholamine assay were collected from the flaccid penis, the erect penis after cavernous nerve stimulation and during detumescence induced by sympathetic trunk stimulation. Epinephrine concentration was not significantly different in these three stages.

TYRAMINE REVEALS FAILING α2-ADRENOCEPTOR CONTROL OF CATECHOLAMINE RELEASE AND TOTAL PERIPEHRAL VASCULAR RESISTANCE IN HYPERTENSIVE RATS [PDF]
α2-adrenoceptor-activation lowers central sympathetic output, peripheral, vesicular norepinephrine release, epinephrine secretion and modulates vascular tension.

Effect of methylphenidate treatment during adolescence on norepinephrine transporter function in orbitofrontal cortex in a rat model of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder [PDF]
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is associated with hypofunctional medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) and orbitofrontal cortex (OFC). Methylphenidate (MPH) remediates ADHD, in part, by inhibiting the norepinephrine transporter (NET). MPH also

Inadvertent Extravasations of Norepinephrine
A 63-year-old male patient of diabetic ketoacidosis and septic shock was started on norepinephrine infusion following which he developed bulla and subcutaneous tissue ischemia in the event of inadvertent extravasations of norepinephrine. The patient improved after management with mechanical debridement of necrosed tissue and regular dressing of the ...

Postoperative norepinephrine versus dopamine in patients undergoing noncardiac surgery: a propensity-matched analysis using a nationwide intensive care database [PDF]
Background Choosing catecholamines, such as norepinephrine and dopamine, for perioperative blood pressure control is essential for anesthesiologists and intensivists. However, studies specific to noncardiac surgery are limited.

A cautionary note for researchers treating mice with the neurotransmitter norepinephrine
The sympathetic nervous system plays a crucial role in metabolic function and glucose homeostasis. Norepinephrine is the main neurotransmitter released from sympathetic neurons. The major goal of our studies was to examine the impact of norepinephrine on

Organic Cation Transporter 3: A Cellular Mechanism Underlying Rapid, Non-Genomic Glucocorticoid Regulation of Monoaminergic Neurotransmission, Physiology, and Behavior [PDF]
Corticosteroid hormones act at intracellular glucocorticoid receptors (GR) and mineralocorticoid receptors (MR) to alter gene expression, leading to diverse physiological and behavioral responses.

Blockade of alpha 2-adrenergic receptors in prelimbic cortex: impact on cocaine self-administration in adult spontaneously hypertensive rats following adolescent atomoxetine treatment [PDF]
RATIONALE: Research with the spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR) model of attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder demonstrated that chronic methylphenidate treatment during adolescence increased cocaine self-administration established during adulthood ...
