Abstract excerpt
D-amphetamine (AMPH) down-regulates the norepinephrine transporter (NET), although the exact trafficking pathways altered and motifs involved are not known. Therefore, we examined the cellular and molecular mechanisms involved in AMPH-induced NET regulation in human placental trophoblast cells expressing the wild-type (WT)-hNET and the hNET double mutant (DM)-bearing protein kinase C (PKC)-resistant T258A + S259A...
