1 Cocaine-induced locomotor stimulation involves autophagic degradation of the dopamine transporter. Cocaine solute carrier family 6 (neurotransmitter transporter, dopamine), member 3 Mus musculus
2 This action is thought to reflect binding of cocaine to the dopamine transporter (DAT) to inhibit its function. Cocaine solute carrier family 6 (neurotransmitter transporter, dopamine), member 3 Mus musculus
3 This action is thought to reflect binding of cocaine to the dopamine transporter (DAT) to inhibit its function. Cocaine solute carrier family 6 (neurotransmitter transporter, dopamine), member 3 Mus musculus
4 However, cocaine is a relatively weak inhibitor of DAT, and many DAT inhibitors do not share the behavioral actions of cocaine. Cocaine solute carrier family 6 (neurotransmitter transporter, dopamine), member 3 Mus musculus
5 Our findings indicate that autophagic degradation of DAT modulates behavioral actions of cocaine. Cocaine solute carrier family 6 (neurotransmitter transporter, dopamine), member 3 Mus musculus
