Partial or complete loss of norepinephrine differentially alters contextual fear and catecholamine release dynamics in hippocampal CA1

Leslie R. Wilson, Nicholas W. Plummer, Irina Y. Evsyukova, Daniela Patino, Casey L. Stewart, Kathleen G. Smith, K Konrad, Sydney A. Fry, Alex L. Deal, Victor W. Kilonzo, Sambit Panda, Natale R. Sciolino, Jesse D. Cushman, Patricia Jensen

The paper investigates NE and DA release dynamics in hippocampal CA1 during contextual fear conditioning using mouse models and fiber photometry, finding sex-dependent effects and differential impacts on memory recall.

Chemogenetic Stimulation of Tonic Locus Coeruleus Activity Strengthens the Default Mode Network

Esteban A. Oyarzabal, Li‐Ming Hsu, Manasmita Das, Tzu-Hao Harry Chao, Jingheng Zhou, Sheng Song, Weiting Zhang, Kathleen G. Smith, Natale R. Sciolino, Irina Y. Evsyukova, Hong Yuan, Sung‐Ho Lee, Guohong Cui, Patricia Jensen, Yen‐Yu Ian Shih

This study shows that chemogenetic activation of locus coeruleus norepinephrine neurons strengthens functional connectivity in the default mode network in mice.

Elimination of galanin synthesis in noradrenergic neurons reduces galanin in select brain areas and promotes active coping behaviors

Rachel P. Tillage, Natale R. Sciolino, Nicholas W. Plummer, Daniel J. Lustberg, Larry Cameron Liles, Madeline Hsiang, Jeanne M. Powell, Kathleen G. Smith, Patricia Jensen, David Weinshenker

This study shows that eliminating galanin in noradrenergic neurons reduces galanin in specific brain regions and alters coping behaviors without affecting norepinephrine levels.

A role for the locus coeruleus in the modulation of feeding

Natale R. Sciolino, Madeline Hsiang, Christopher M. Mazzone, Leslie R. Wilson, Nicholas W. Plummer, Jaisal Amin, Kathleen G. Smith, Christopher A. McGee, Sydney A. Fry, Cindy X. Yang, Jeanne M. Powell, Michael R. Bruchas, Alexxai V. Kravitz, Jesse D. Cushman, Michael J. Krashes, , Patricia Jensen

This study shows that locus coeruleus-norepinephrine (LC-NE) neurons modulate feeding by integrating external and internal cues, with their activity changing during food approach and consumption.
