Role of the dopamine transporter in the action of psychostimulants, nicotine, and other drugs of abuse.

CNS & neurological disorders drug targets - 1 Nov 2008

Zhu J, Reith M E A

Abstract excerpt

A number of studies over the last two decades have demonstrated the critical importance of dopamine (DA) in the behavioral pharmacology and addictive properties of abused drugs. The DA transporter (DAT) is a major target for drugs of abuse in the category of psychostimulants, and for methylphenidate (MPH), a drug used for treating attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), which can also be a...
