Noradrenergic control of gene expression and long-term neuronal adaptation evoked by learned vocalizations in songbirds.

Norepinephrine (NE) is thought to play important roles in the consolidation and retrieval of long-term memories, but its role in the processing and memorization of complex acoustic signals used for vocal communication has yet to be determined. We have used a combination of gene expression analysis,...
