Designing a norepinephrine optical tracer for imaging individual noradrenergic synapses and their activity in vivo
The noradrenergic system plays numerous physiological roles but tools to study it are scarce. Here the authors develop a fluorescent analogue of norepinephrine that can be used to label noradrenergic neurons and the synaptic vesicles, and use it to measure single synaptic vesicle release sites in li...
