Norepinephrine modulates wakefulness via α1 adrenoceptors in paraventricular thalamic nucleus

Summary: Norepinephrine (NE) neurons in the locus coeruleus (LC) play key roles in modulating sleep and wakefulness. Recent studies have revealed that the paraventricular thalamic nucleus (PVT) is a critical wakefulness-controlling nucleus in mice. However, the effects of NE on PVT neurons remain la...
