The interactive effects between gender and a selective alteration in the neurotrophin, brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) upon methamphetamine (MA)-induced neurotoxicity of the nigrostriatal dopaminergic (NSDA) system were assessed. MA…
The issue of whether a deletion of the dopamine transporter (DAT) allele (+/- DAT) would differentially alter striatal dopamine (DA) and dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC) concentrations and DA release upon potassium and methamphetamine (MA)…
In the present report we examined the differences in in vitro dopamine (DA) and dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC) efflux from the corpus striatum (CS) of intact versus 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) lesioned (in substantia nigra) male rats in response…
