Phasic activation of the locus coeruleus attenuates the acoustic startle response by increasing cortical arousal
Abstract An alerting sound elicits the Acoustic Startle Response (ASR) that is dependent on the sound volume and organisms’ state, which is regulated by neuromodulatory centers. The locus coeruleus (LC) neurons respond to salient stimuli and noradrenaline release affects sensory processing, includin...
