The effects of (-)cathinone, the primary psychoactive alkaloid of the Khat plant, were compared to those of (+)amphetamine in the anterior caudate-putamen and the nucleus accumbens. In vivo microdialysis was used to measure extracellular levels of…

The gonadal steroid hormone, estrogen, has the capacity to function as a neuroprotectant against methamphetamine (MA)-induced neurotoxicity of the nigrostriatal dopaminergic system within female, but not male, mice. In an attempt to understand some…
