- norepinephrine, also known as noradrenaline, is a chemical that acts to enhance the force of skeletal muscle contraction as well as the pace and force of cardiac contraction.
- It is produced mostly from the terminals of sympathetic nerve fibers.
- The fight-or-flight response, in which the body prepares to react to or flee from an acute threat, is dependent on norepinephrine's effects.
- The catechol group is attached to an amine group in norepinephrine, which makes it a catecholamine.
- Epinephrine, the other primary mediator of the flight-or-flight response, is formed when a methyl group is added to the amine group of norepinephrine.
