Norepinephrine ot noradrenaline is a chemical produced within the humanoid nervous system. It acts as a neurotransmitter that affects the part of the brain that controls the fight-or-flight response, which in turn, increases the heart rate. It is sometimes abbreviated norep. (TNG: "Skin of Evil", "Who Watches the Watchers?")
The Clown, a manifestation of fear in Viorsa's virtual reality stasis system, metaphorically chopped his victims' heads off by raising the amount of norepinephrine in their bodies to such extreme levels that they suffered massive heart attacks and died. (VOY: "The Thaw")
