:: : LC refers to the locus coeruleus, which is the primary brain stem nucleus where norepinephrine ( NE ) is produced.
22.
The DMH sends information to the ventrolateral preoptic area, locus coeruleus, and orexin neurons in order to aid in the regulation of wakefulness.
23.
The most important source of norepinephrine in the brain is the locus coeruleus, which contains noradrenergic cell group A6 and adjoins cell group A4.
24.
There are sex differences in locus coeruleus dendritic structure that allow for an increased reception and processing of limbic information in females compared to males.
25.
Alterations in the locus coeruleus ( LC ) accompany dysregulation of NE function and likely play a key role in the pathophysiology of these neuropsychiatric disorders.
26.
Drugs in this group that are capable of entering the brain often have strong sedating effects, due to their inhibitory effects on the locus coeruleus.
27.
The noradrenergic system is a bundle of axons that originate in the locus coeruleus and ascends up into the neocortex, limbic system, and basal forebrain.
28.
The locus coeruleus ( or " LC " ) is located in the posterior area of the rostral pons in the lateral floor of the fourth ventricle.
29.
Dopaminergic neurotransmission regulates the activity of 5-HT and NE in the dorsal raphe nucleus ( DR ) and locus coeruleus ( LC ), respectively.
30.
The hypothalamus receives many inputs from the brainstem, the most notable from the nucleus of the solitary tract, the locus coeruleus, and the ventrolateral medulla.
