Noradrenaline released from locus coeruleus axons contracts cerebral capillary pericytes via α(2) adrenergic receptors

Noradrenaline (NA) release from locus coeruleus axons generates vascular contractile tone in arteriolar smooth muscle and contractile capillary pericytes. This tone allows neuronal activity to evoke vasodilation that increases local cerebral blood flow (CBF). Much of the vascular resistance within t...
