Perilipin regulates the thermogenic actions of norepinephrine in brown adipose tissue [PDF]
In response to cold, norepinephrine (NE)-induced triacylglycerol hydrolysis (lipolysis) in adipocytes of brown adipose tissue (BAT) provides fatty acid substrates to mitochondria for heat generation (adaptive thermogenesis).

REVIEW: Norepinephrine and stimulant addiction [PDF]
ABSTRACTNo pharmacotherapies are approved for stimulant use disorders, which are an important public health problem. Stimulants increase synaptic levels of the monoamines dopamine (DA), serotonin and norepinephrine (NE). Stimulant reward is attributable mostly to increased DA in the reward circuitry, although DA stimulation alone cannot explain the ...

State‐of‐the‐Art, Insights, and Perspectives for MOFs‐Nanocomposites and MOF‐Derived (Nano)Materials
Different approaches to MOF‐NP composite formation, such as ship‐in‐a‐bottle, bottle‐around‐the‐ship and in situ one‐step synthesis, are used. Owing to synergistic effects, the advantageous features of the components of the composites are beneficially combined, and their individual drawbacks are mitigated.

α2-Adrenergic Receptor in Liver Fibrosis: Implications for the Adrenoblocker Mesedin
The noradrenergic system is proposed to play a prominent role in the pathogenesis of liver fibrosis. While α1- and β-adrenergic receptors (ARs) are suggested to be involved in a multitude of profibrogenic actions, little is known about α2 ...

Amphetamine, but not methylphenidate, increases ethanol intake in adolescent male, but not in female, rats [PDF]
Introduction: There has been an increasing interest in analyzing the interactions between stimulants and ethanol during childhood and adolescence. Stimulants are used to treat attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in these developmental stages,

Extracellular Norepinephrine Clearance by the Norepinephrine Transporter Is Required for Skeletal Homeostasis [PDF]
Changes in bone remodeling induced by pharmacological and genetic manipulation of β-adrenergic receptor (βAR) signaling in osteoblasts support a role of sympathetic nerves in the regulation of bone remodeling. However, the contribution of endogenous sympathetic outflow and nerve-derived norepinephrine (NE) to bone remodeling under pathophysiological ...

This review systematically examines the nanomechanical mechanisms of mussel‐inspired molecular interactions, primarily investigated by direct force measurement techniques such as surface forces apparatus and atomic force microscopy. The macroscopic adhesive and self‐healing performances of mussel‐inspired functional materials, including coacervates ...

Single prazosin infusion in prelimbic cortex Fosters extinction of amphetamine-induced conditioned place preference [PDF]
Exposure to drug-associated cues to induce extinction is a useful strategy to contrast cue-induced drug seeking. Norepinephrine (NE) transmission in medial prefrontal cortex has a role in the acquisition and extinction of conditioned place preference ...

The role of norepinephrine in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia [PDF]
Several lines of evidence suggest a role for norepinephrine (NE) in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia, and in pharmacological interventions. In the present paper, we review recent findings about the locus coeruleus-norepinephrine (LC-NE) system and its involvement in brain function and cognition to give a more integrated account of the possible role
