    That is sort of a loaded question because there are many inhibiters which would cause the lack of acetylocholine and norephinephrine. So there is no definitive answer unless there were certain conditions present at the time.

    This is a natural chemical found in the brain. A neurostransmitter.

    A decrease in norepinephrine AND acetylocholine are common in people who suffer from Alzheimer's. However, this is not found until post mortem since there is no way to actually study these neurotransmitters until after death.
