    ..The results presented here suggest that NE promotes wakefulness during transitions between sleep and wake under conditions involving mild stress and SD, but not under baseline circumstances...

    ..Sleep latency in response to saline or amphetamine injections was reduced in Dbh-KO and DKO mice relative to other groups. Behavioral arrests, that are frequent in Hcrt-KO mice, were not exacerbated in DKO mice...

    Sleep 26:521-6. 2003
    ..Mice lacking the ability to make norepinephrine (NE) were used to investigate how NE may be involved in regulating sleep and sleep latency under normal conditions and as a response to mild stress or varying doses of amphetamine...
