“…NE plays a prominent role in arousal, attention, executive function, and stress responses (Harley, 2004;Viggiano et al, 2004a;Morilak et al, 2005), with disorders such as ADHD, posttraumatic stress disorder. and depression often linked to disrupted central nervous system NE signaling (Southwick et al, 1999;Kim et al, 2008;Goddard et al, 2010). Prominent peripheral roles of 5-HT and NE are also known, as for example the role of the former in gut and platelet function (Mercado and Kilic, 2010;Mawe and Hoffman, 2013), and of the latter in broad control of autonomic function including heart rate, vasoconstriction, and lipolysis (Goldstein et al, 1983).…”
