English - English
A neurotransmitter found in the locus coeruleus which is synthesized from dopamine
Neurotransmitter of the autonomic nervous system
A neurotransmitter released by sympathetic motor neurons and by some neurons in the central nervous system
a catecholamine precursor of epinephrine that is secreted by the adrenal medulla and also released at synapses
an important brain neurotransmitter (chemical which enables brain cells to communicate with each other) which plays a role in primitive drives and emotions such as motivation, aggression, and acquisition of food and sex, and body movement It is sometimes called noradrenaline and is, in fact, the brain's version of adrenaline
A chemical transmitter, naturally-occuring in nerves, and used in synthetic form to sustain blood-pressure
A neurotransmitter; a biogenic amine secreted by the adrenal medulla; a catecholamine that is very similar to dopamine
A neurotransmitter and a hormone It is released by the sympathetic nervous system onto the heart, blood vessels, and other organs and by the adrenal gland into the bloodstream as part of the fight-or-flight response Norepinephrine is also present in the brain and is used as a neurotransmitter in normal brain processes
also called noradrenaline Neurotransmitter that is chemically related to epinephrine Too much may be present during manic states, too little is associated with depression Nyctophobia - fear of darkness
or noradrenaline One of two catecholamine hormones (epinephrine is the other) secreted by the adrenal glands, as well as at nerve endings, as a neurotransmitter. It resembles adrenaline chemically and in its actions on the body, which mimic sympathetic nervous system stimulation. It constricts most blood vessels and is given for certain types of shock. Norepinephrine is formed from tyrosine and converted to epinephrine. It was discovered by Ulf von Euler-Chelpin (1905-83) in the mid-1940s
One of the hormones secreted by the adrenal medulla; its action in emotional excitement is similar in some, but not all, respects to that of epinephrine It is also a neurotransmitter of the central nervous system Norepinephrine synapses can be either excitatory or inhibitory Believed to play a role in depression and bipolar disorders (syn noradrenaline) See also adrenal gland, epinephrine
Norepinephrine, also known as noradrenaline, is a hormone produced by the adrenal glands and also secreted from nerve endings in the sympathetic nervous system as a chemical transmitter of nerve impulses Many of its general actions are similar to those of adrenalin, but it is more concerned with maintaining normal body activity than with preparing the body for emergencies
A brain chemical that is secreted primarily in response to low blood pressure and stress It has several functions throughout the body, and is believed to play a role in mood regulation In the brain, it functions as a neurotransmitter
A chemical in the brain the deficiency of which is believed to be one of the causes of depression
a neurotransmitter found mainly in areas of the brain that are involved in governing autonomic nervous system activity, especially blood pressure and heart rate
Norepinephrine (Noradrenalin) is the primary neurotransmitter in the sympathetic nervous system Nervous of this system provides signals to the skin, heart, eyes, lungs, and GI system Additionally, norepinephrine plays a role in hypertension and insulin resistance
