Background The stress response in the body triggered by the sympathetic nervous system (SNS) contains two different chemicals – neurotransmitters and hormones. Neurotransmitters‚ specifically norepinephrine (NE)‚ are released into the postganglionic synapses of the sympathetic nervous system (SNS) during flight or fight response. NE carries out its effects on a target cell by binding to and activating adrenergic receptors. NE is usually eliminated through the reuptake into presynaptic cells and enzymes
