Researchers at the University of Tsukuba investigated whether monoamine neurotransmitters, such as dopamine, are involved in hippocampal activation even during light exercise. Dopamine secreted from ...

When your brain needs you to pay attention to something important, one way it can do that is to send out a burst of noradrenaline, according to a new MIT study. This neuromodulator, produced by a ...

You have full access to this article via your institution. Platelet uptake has been well described, and has been helpful in diagnosing pheochromocytoma 5 for a reason that contrasts with the authors' ...

Noradrenaline is a neuromodulator secreted in the brain depending on behavioral context and physiological states of animal, influencing a wide range of physiological functions by modulating brain ...

Background: Generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) during exercise has been linked to increased oxygen consumption. ROS could also be produced by other mechanisms—for example, a respiratory burst ...

Noradrenaline is a neuromodulator that has been linked to arousal and boosting alertness, but can lead to anxiety in large amounts. Unlike neurotransmitters, which enable cell-to-cell communication, ...

Good news for adrenaline junkies. An adrenaline burst could help scientists learn when we experience surprises due to the hormone noradrenaline, or norepinephrine. A study conducted at the ...

A new study suggests that noradrenaline, a neurotransmitter responsible for arousal in the brain, plays a vital role in early sensory perceptions of the world. Being aware of our surroundings is a ...

Studies in mice by researchers at the University of Melbourne and Monash University, have uncovered a mechanistic link between stress and weakened immunity. Their studies found under conditions of ...

ACETYLCHOLINE contracts the spleen of the dog 1 and cat 2. In these species the effect of acetylcholine in contracting the spleen is not blocked by atropine, but is blocked by dibenzyline and reduced ...

You wake up. The alarm clock says 02:56. “Oh no, it is not time to wake up yet,” you think, fearing that you will need lots of coffee to stay awake the following day. Most people believe that a good ...
