Noradrenergic (NE) neurons are confined to three groups in the pons and medulla
oblongata: the well-defined locus coeruleus or A6 cell group, a more diffuse but continuous …

This article discusses the current special issue of Brain Research. The central noradrenergic
system consists of clusters of norepinephrine (NE)–containing neurons scattered through …

Practically all the cell bodies of the noradrenaline (NA) neurons in the brain are localized in
the pons and the medulla oblongata as shown by lesion3, 16, pharmacological, and …

Noradrenergic LC neurons appear to be relatively unique in the brain, being unsurpassed in
the divergence and ubiquity of their projections through the central nervous system. In this …

The intensity of research on the central catecholaminergic neuron systems has continued
unabated since last year's review of the dopaminergic systems (Moore & Bloom 1978) …

The area that occupies the central portion of the brain stem is known as the reticular
formation. Throughout most of its extent, this area is occupied by aggregations of loosely …

Together with Istvan Törk, we have examined the morphology and distribution of
noradrenergic (Baker et al., 1989) and serotonergic neurons in the human brain (Törk and …

A dense aggregation of catecholamine-containing varicosities is present in the central gray
area which borders the nucleus raphe dorsalis 4, v, 17. Based on this proximity of …

Knowledge of the cellular origin of monoaminergic nerve terminals has been obtained
largely from fluorescence histochemical studies 1, 4-6, 15. More recently, biochemical …

The supraspinal afferent and efferent connections of the A5 noradrenergic cell group were
examined in rats. Very small deposits of HRP-WGA were made in the rostral A5 area …
