Dynamic control of the dopamine transporter in neurotransmission and homeostasis

Abstract The dopamine transporter (DAT) transports extracellular dopamine into the intracellular space contributing to the regulation of dopamine neurotransmission. A reduction of DAT density is implicated in Parkinson’s disease (PD) by neuroimaging; dopamine turnover is dopamine turnover is elevate...
