Chronic stress-induced LC-NE dysfunction: cellular and axonal mechanisms underlying impaired neuromodulation
The locus coeruleus-noradrenergic (LC-NE) system is a central neuromodulatory network involved in regulation of arousal, attention, and adaptive behavioral function. Chronic stress has been associated with altered LC activity, including shifts in tonic-phasic regulation, yet the direction, magnitude, and persistence of...
