Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the regulated release of catecholamines. The regulated release of catecholamines by a cell or group of cells. The catecholamines are a group of physiologically important biogenic amines that possess a catechol (3,4-dihydroxyphenyl) nucleus and are derivatives of 3,4-dihydroxyphenylethylamine. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of the regulated release of a catecholamine. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the regulated release of norepinephrine. The directed movement of norepinephrine into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. Norepinephrine (3,4-dihydroxyphenyl-2-aminoethanol) is a hormone secreted by the adrenal medulla and a neurotransmitter in the sympathetic peripheral nervous system and in some tracts of the CNS. It is also the biosynthetic precursor of epinephrine. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of a cellular process, any of those that are carried out at the cellular level, but are not necessarily restricted to a single cell. For example, cell communication occurs among more than one cell, but occurs at the cellular level. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of the controlled release of a substance from a cell or group of cells. Any process that activates, maintains or increases the frequency, rate or extent of the directed movement of amines into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. Any process that increases the frequency, rate or extent of the regulated release of norepinephrine. The regulated release of norepinephrine by a cell or group of cells. Norepinephrine is a catecholamine and it acts as a hormone and as a neurotransmitter of most of the sympathetic nervous system.
