pubmed:abstractText |
Recent postmortem studies demonstrate disrupted neurochemistry of the noradrenergic locus coeruleus (LC) in major depression (MD). Increased levels of tyrosine hydroxylase and decreased levels of norepinephrine transporter implicate a norepinephrine deficiency in the LC in MD. Here we describe a study of alpha2-adrenoceptors in the LC and raphe nuclei of subjects with MD compared with psychiatrically normal control subjects.
