Serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs) are a class of antidepressants that block the reuptake of both serotonin and norepinephrine in the body. They are taken to treat depression ...

The results for the first time describe the tightly synchronized oscillations in the neurotransmitter norepinephrine (NE), cerebral blood, and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) that combine during non ...

A new study, led by researchers from the University of Copenhagen and the University of Oxford, reveals how norepinephrine drives the brain’s waste removal system during deep sleep, in mice. The ...
