Your adrenal gland releases the stress hormones cortisol, epinephrine, also known as adrenaline, and norepinephrine.

你的肾上腺释放压力荷尔蒙皮质醇，肾上腺素，以及去甲肾上腺素。

Interestingly, one of the most effective antipsychotic drugs, clozapine, is a weak D2 antagonist, suggesting that other neurotransmitter systems like norepinephrine, serotonin, and GABA are involved.

有趣的是，最有效的抗精病药之一，氯氮，是一种弱D2受体拮抗剂；这提示其它递质系统，比如去甲肾上腺素、5-羟色胺、γ-氨基丁酸也与疾病有关。

Norepinephrine amplifies signals related to attention and motivation, and dopamine is highly involved in learning, movement, and operating the brain's reward center.

去甲肾上腺素放大与注意力和动机相关的信号，多巴胺则高度参与学、运动和大脑奖赏中枢的运作。

He explains that the neurotransmitter dopamine is converted into the neurotransmitter norepinephrine by an enzyme called dopamine beta-hydroxylase, and that blood type O people have higher levels of DBH, so they are prone to anxiety from increased levels of norepinephrine.

他解释递质多巴胺通过一种叫做多巴胺-ß-羟化酶的酶转化递质去甲肾上腺素，O 型血的人有高水的DBH（多巴胺-ß-羟化酶），所以他们容易因去甲肾上腺素的增加而焦虑。

When you fall asleep though, your norepinephrine levels drop.

当你入睡时，去甲肾上腺素水降。

It will immediately increase noradrenaline in the body to activate our fight and flight system.

Early romantic love and attraction, what you might call passion, is all about flooding the brain's reward systems in a tsunami of feel-good chemicals like adrenaline, norepinephrine, and dopamine.

早期的浪漫爱情和相互吸引，或者是你称为热情的东西，就是给脑中的感官系统带来了一场充满愉悦感的海啸，肾上腺素、去甲肾上腺素和多巴胺等物质涌入脑中。

Cocaine increases the release of certain neurotransmitters, but it's biggest effect is blocking reuptake receptors on presynaptic axon terminals, and both actions keep neurotransmitters like dopamine, norepinephrine, and serotonin in the synapse longer and increases their effects.

可卡因促进一些特定递质的释放，但它最大的作用是阻止突触前元终端受体的“再摄取”；两种作用都能使得递质，如多巴胺、去甲肾上腺素与5-HT，在突触间隙存留时间延长，从而加强他们的作用。

On the smooth muscle cells controlling some blood vessels, there are receptors called alpha receptors — when norepinephrine, or epinephrine, bind to those receptors, they make those smooth muscle cells contract, thereby restricting blood flow.

在控制一些血管的滑肌细胞上，有一种叫做α受体的受体——当去甲肾上腺素或肾上腺素与这些受体结合时，它们使这些滑肌细胞收缩，从而限制血液流动。

Diagnosis of neuroblastoma usually starts with testing for HMA and VMA in the blood or urine, since high levels those metabolites may indicate tumors that secrete epinephrine and norepinephrine.

对于母细胞瘤的诊断，通常先检测血或尿中的HMA和VMA，这是因为代谢产物含量高可提示肿瘤在释放肾上腺素和去甲肾上腺素。

As a result, dopamine, norepinephrine, and serotonin levels in the brain begin to fall, leading to abnormal brain development and intellectual disability.

如此一来，脑中多巴胺、去甲肾上腺素和血清素的水开始降，从而导致大脑发育异常和智力障碍。

First, it optimizes the levels of neurotransmitters like serotonin, norepinephrine, and dopamine.

首先，它能优化递质水，如血清素、去甲肾上腺素和多巴胺。

Adderall also causes the release of norepinephrine, which activates the sympathetic nervous system, initiating your fight-or-flight response.

Adderall 还导致去甲肾上腺素的释放，从而激活交感系统，引发你的“战或逃”反应。

Higher levels of norepinephrine also apparently causes a tendency towards anger and aggression.

高水的去甲肾上腺素能显著导致愤怒和攻击的倾向。

Noradrenaline levels can increase within a day of ceasing opioid use.

去甲肾上腺素水能在停止服用阿片类药物的一天之内增加。

This is why a brain on intense new love looks a whole lot like a brain on coke — adrenaline and norepinephrine amp up your heart rate and get you all restless, while those dopamine drips leave you feeling euphoric.

这就是刚陷入爱情的脑袋为什么看起来吸了毒一样的原因，肾上腺素和去甲肾上腺素使得你心跳加速、焦躁不安，同时多巴胺又使得你感到愉悦。

So, the preganglionic fiber releases ACh, and the postganglionic releases norepinephrine.

所以节前纤维释放 ACh，节后纤维释放去甲肾上腺素。

Noradrenaline acts on what's called brown fat, a type of fat tissue that keeps you warm by breaking down glucose and fat molecules in the body.

去甲肾上腺素作用于所谓的棕色脂肪，这是一种脂肪组织，通过分解体内的葡萄糖和脂肪分子来保暖。

And unfortunately, these dreams can be especially memorable, because you often realize you're having a nightmare and wake up, which gives you that burst of norepinephrine that helps solidify your memories.

不幸的是，这些梦可能特别令人难忘，因为你常意识到自己在做噩梦然后醒来，这给你一种帮助巩固记忆的去甲肾上腺素。
