title: DSP-4 treatment accelerates kindling.
abstract: Norepinephrine depletion of the central nervous system by peripheral N-(2-chloroethyl)-N-ethyl bromobenzylamine administration accelerates the development of seizures kindled by repeated stimulation of the amygdala. These data, in conjunction with previous 6-hydroxydopamine data, demonstrate the robustness of this phenomenon and emphasize the importance of noradrenergic innervation originating from the locus ceruleus in the suppression of seizure development.
