Prazosin during fear conditioning facilitates subsequent extinction in male C57Bl/6N mice
Recovery from a traumatic experience requires extinction of cue-based fear responses, a process that is impaired in post-traumatic stress disorder. While studies suggest a link between fear behavioral flexibility and noradrenaline signaling, the role of ...

Differential alpha1-adrenoceptor labeling by [3H]prazosin and [3H]tamsulosin [PDF]
The radioligand binding properties of [3H]prazosin and [3H]tamsulosin at alpha1-adrenoceptors of several rat tissues, human prostate and cloned rat and human alpha1-adrenoceptor subtypes were compared in Tris/EDTA buffer unless otherwise indicated.

Hypothalamic Control of Liver Health and Disease: From Circuits to Pathophysiology and Therapies
This review delineates the hypothalamic circuits that control liver homeostasis via autonomic and neuroendocrine pathways. Dysregulation of this hypothalamus–liver axis drives disease progression across a spectrum including steatotic liver disease, liver inflammation and injury, fibrosis, cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma.
