Oliveira A, Azevedo M, Seixas R, Silva S, Martinho R, Serrao P, et al.
Neuropharmacology
. 2025 Feb;

PMID: 39988278
Adrenaline (Ad) strengthens contextual fear memory by increasing blood glucose, possibly enhancing hippocampus acetylcholine synthesis. Nevertheless, it is unclear if peripheral Ad influences the cholinergic system, contributing to contextual fear...

PMID: 37938511
Adrenaline (Ad) and glucose released into the bloodstream during stress may strengthen contextual fear memory. However, no previous studies have detached the effects of glucose from Ad in this paradigm....

PMID: 37356751
Aims: Adrenaline enhances contextual fear memory consolidation possibly by activating liver β-adrenoceptors causing transient hyperglycaemia. Contrastingly, insulin-induced hypoglycaemia may culminate in blood adrenaline increment, hidering the separation of each hormone's...

PMID: 35173611
The processes by which fear memory is encoded, consolidated, and re-consolidated are extremely complex and appear to require the release of stress hormones, especially adrenaline (AD). AD improves contextual fear...
