Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanisms of neurotransmitter release by amphetamines: a review.

TL;DR: Current issues on the two apparent primary mechanisms--the redistribution of catecholamines from synaptic vesicles to the cytosol, and induction of reverse transport of transmitter through plasma membrane uptake carriers are reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Amphetamine-induced loss of human dopamine transporter activity: an internalization-dependent and cocaine-sensitive mechanism.

TL;DR: Evidence is presented that DAT substrates, including AMPH and DA, cause internalization of human DAT, thereby reducing transport capacity, and acute application of AMPH would reduce DA uptake not only by direct competition for uptake, but also by reducing the available cell-surface DAT.
Journal ArticleDOI

Protein Kinase C Activation Regulates Human Serotonin Transporters in HEK-293 Cells via Altered Cell Surface Expression

TL;DR: Data indicate that altered surface abundance, rather than reduced catalytic transport efficiency, mediates acute PKC-dependent modulation of 5-HT uptake, and that activity reductions are paralleled by a staurosporine-sensitive loss of surface SERT protein.
Journal ArticleDOI

Amphetamine induces dopamine efflux through a dopamine transporter channel

TL;DR: It is reported that AMPH causes DAT-mediated DA efflux by two independent mechanisms: a slow process consistent with an exchange mechanism and a process that results in rapid (millisecond) bursts ofDA efflux through a channel-like mode of DAT.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase Regulates Dopamine Transporter Surface Expression and Dopamine Transport Capacity

TL;DR: An involvement of the MAPK cascade in regulating DAT transport capacity in striatum is demonstrated and that inhibition of this cascade decreases DAT cell surface expression in HEK 293 cells is highlighted, highlighting the potential role of MAPK as a presynaptic mechanism that regulates DA signaling.
