has this chemical also been used as an antidepressant?
Yes, Monoamine oxidase inhibitors are antidepressants that inhibit the metabolic degradation of norepinephrine as well as serotonin and dopamine.
Norepinephrine
Monoamine oxidase inhibitors are antidepressants that inhibit the metabolic degradation of norepinephrine as well as serotonin and dopamine. In some cases it is difficult to distinguish the norepinephrin
what role does the neurotransmitter norepinephrine have in the cardiac system It increases heart rate and blood pressure what is norepinephrine? It is an organic chemical in the catecholamine family that functions in the brain and body as a hormone and neurotransmitter. what kind of a structure does this organ have? Its structure differs from that of epinephrine only in that epinephrine has a methyl group attached to its nitrogen, whereas the methyl group is replaced by a hydrogen atom in norepinephrine. does it affect our sleep? Can cause sleeplessness does that chemical have any affects on our skin? It activates the afferent sensory neuron does it go through degradation? Yes, in mammals, norepinephrine is rapidly degraded to various metabolites. did anyone discover this? Ulf von Euler who was he? A Swedish physiologist and pharmacologist can you tell me some researches that he has done? His further researches include four other important endogenous active substances, prostaglandin, vesiglandin, piperidine and noradrenaline. when did he discover norephinephrine? 1946

Norepinephrine [SEP] Stimulants and antidepressants
These are drugs whose primary effects are thought to be mediated by different neurotransmitter systems (dopamine for stimulants, serotonin for antidepressants), but many also increase levels of norepinephrine in the brain. Amphetamine, for example, is a stimulant that increases release of norepinephrine as well as dopamine. Monoamine oxidase inhibitors are antidepressants that inhibit the metabolic degradation of norepinephrine as well as serotonin and dopamine. In some cases it is difficult to distinguish the norepinephrine-mediated effects from the effects related to other neurotransmitters.
