Abstract: Activity of the ventral tegmental area (VTA) and its terminals has been implicated in the Pavlovian associative learning of both stressful and rewarding stimuli. However, the role of the VTA noradrenergic signaling in fear responses… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0188471
Abstract: Rationale We have hypothesized that post-infarction cardiac remodeling can be influenced by shifts in the balance between intracellular mediators of “pathologic” and “physiologic” hypertrophy. Although alpha1 adrenergic receptors (alpha1-ARs) mediate pro-adaptive hypertrophy during pressure overload,… read more here.
