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 neurones and the adrenal medulla, acting as both a neurotransmitter and a hormone. It is measured in 1 laboratory test on BiomarkersLabs.com.

What is Noradrenaline?

Noradrenaline is synthesised from dopamine in sympathetic neurones and the adrenal medulla, acting as both a neurotransmitter and a hormone. It drives the sympathetic stress response, elevating heart rate, blood pressure, and alertness. Metabolism proceeds via catechol-O-methyltransferase and monoamine oxidase to normetanephrine and vanillylmandelic acid.

Why is Noradrenaline measured?

Noradrenaline in this panel is interpreted as a marker of sympathetic tone and stress reactivity. High values may reflect acute stress, anxiety, or increased sympathetic activity; low values may suggest adrenal fatigue or HPA-axis dysfunction in functional models, though these constructs lack validation in mainstream endocrinology.
