| 1. | Norepinephrine released by the locus coeruleus affects brain function in a number of ways.
|
| 2. | The activation of the locus coeruleus and release of norepinephrine causes wakefulness and increases vigilance.
|
| 3. | It is associated with the degeneration of neurons in the substantia nigra and locus coeruleus.
|
| 4. | The level of activity in the locus coeruleus correlates broadly with vigilance and speed of reaction.
|
| 5. | The Duke of Westminster had purchased Angelica in 1886 when she was carrying a foal by Coeruleus.
|
| 6. | It is thought that the locus coeruleus-noradrenergic system mediates the over-consolidation of fear memory.
|
| 7. | The adrenergic component of the reticular activating system is closely associated with the noradrenergic neurons of the locus coeruleus.
|
| 8. | The raphe nuclei, ventral tegmental area, and locus coeruleus have been included in texts about monoamine nuclei.
|
| 9. | Neural activity during REM sleep seems to originate in the brain stem, especially the pontine tegmentum and locus coeruleus.
|
| 10. | The noradrenaline system consists of just 1500 neurons on each side of the brain, primarily in the locus coeruleus.
