What does the Noradrenaline test measure?

Noradrenaline (NE) is a clinical biomarker used in neurological-mental-health assessment. Noradrenaline is synthesised from dopamine in sympathetic nerve terminals and the adrenal medulla. It is measured in 1 laboratory test on BiomarkersLabs.com.

What is Noradrenaline?

Noradrenaline is synthesised from dopamine in sympathetic nerve terminals and the adrenal medulla. It mediates sympathetic 'fight or flight' responses, raising heart rate, blood pressure, and vigilance. Urinary noradrenaline reflects sympathetic activity and adrenal output.

Why is Noradrenaline measured?

Elevated urinary noradrenaline can indicate sympathetic overactivity, stress, or catecholamine-secreting tumours. In functional assessments it is read as a stress and vigilance marker; high values may correlate with anxiety or sleep fragmentation.
