Evidence indicates that noradrenaline elicits anti-inflammatory actions in the central nervous system (CNS), and plays a neuroprotective role where inflammatory events contribute to pathology. Here we examined the ability of pharmacological enhancement of central noradrenergic tone to impact upon
Evidence suggests that noradrenaline has a tonic anti-inflammatory action in the central nervous system (CNS) via its ability to inhibit expression of inflammatory mediators from glial cells. Consequently it is suggested that noradrenaline may play an endogenous neuroprotective role in CNS disorders
The obese Zucker rat (fa/fa) (ObZ) is a good animal model for Metabolic Syndrome (MS)-associated neuroendocrine and inflammatory disorders. The aim of the present investigation was to evaluate the effect of noradrenaline (NA) on the release of IL-1β, IL-6 and TNFα by macrophages from ObZ, as well as
Experiments on canine lateral saphenous vein segments have shown that noradrenaline causes potent, flow dependent effects, at a threshold concentration comparable to that of plasma noradrenaline, when it stimulates a segment by diffusion from its microcirculation (vasa vasorum). The effects it
The noradrenaline stimulus has two components, one excitor, the other inhibitory. Neuronal noradrenaline is the excitor component and plasma noradrenaline is the inhibitory. The balance of effect between the two, the noradrenergic balance, is the controlled variable of the sympathetic system and
Evidence suggests that noradrenaline has a tonic anti-inflammatory action in the central nervous system (CNS) via its ability to suppress microglial and astrocytic activation, and inhibit production of inflammatory mediators. Consequently it is suggested that noradrenaline may play an endogenous
BACKGROUND
Noradrenaline (NA) is known to limit neuroinflammation. However, the previously described induction by NA of a chemokine involved in the progression of immune/inflammatory processes, such as chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 2 (CCL2)/monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1), apparently
Vasopressor support is used widely for maintaining vital organ perfusion pressure in septic shock, with implications for dynamic cerebral autoregulation (dCA). This study investigated whether a noradrenaline-induced steady state increase in mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) would enhance dCA
The impact of treatment with the noradrenaline (NA) re-uptake inhibitor atomoxetine and the α2-adrenoceptor (AR) antagonist idazoxan in an animal model of Parkinson's disease (PD) was assessed. Concurrent systemic treatment with atomoxetine and idazoxan, a combination which serves to enhance the
Noradrenaline (NA) has marked anti-inflammatory effects on activated microglial cells. The present study was conducted to elucidate the mechanisms underlying the NA effects using rat primary cultured microglial cells. NA, an α1 agonist, phenylephrine (Phe) and a β2 agonist, terbutaline (Ter)
Antidepressants that inhibit the recapture of noradrenaline have variable effects in chronic pain which may be related to the complex role of noradrenaline in pain modulation. Whereas at the spinal cord noradrenaline blocks nociceptive transmission, both antinociception and pronociception were
BACKGROUND
Metabolic syndrome (MS) is a metabolic disorder associated with obesity, type-II diabetes, and "low grade inflammation", with the concomitant increased risk of cardiovascular events. Removal of the inflammatory mediator signals is a promising strategy to protect against insulin
