The neurotransmitter transporters have also proved to be very important targets for CNS drug discovery, particularly for antidepressant drugs. Virtually all of the modern generation of ...

The VTA is also one of several areas where the neurotransmitter occurs naturally. In their experiments, the researchers observed increased locomotor activity, comparable to that seen with cocaine ...

Cocaine, a drug of abuse, activates just a portion—10% to 20%—of the neurons in the brain's nucleus accumbens, a critical ...

Cocaine, a drug of abuse, activates just a portion - 10 to 20 percent - of the neurons in the brain's nucleus accumbens, a ...

But this is not the case when we introduce a drug like cocaine. Neurotransmitters are designed to attach themselves only to specific receptors in order to pass on information. But the molecules of ...
