摘要: Transporters of dopamine, serotonin, and norepinephrine have been empirically used as medication targets for several mental illnesses in the last decades. These protein-targeted medications are effective only subpopulations patients with transporter-related brain disorders. Since cDNA clonings early 1990s, molecular studies these transporters revealed a wealth information about transporters' structure-activity relationship (SAR), neuropharmacology, cell biology, biochemistry, pharmacogenetics, diseases related to human genes encoding among regulators. Such new creates unique opportunity develop transporter-specific based on SAR, mRNA, DNA, perhaps transporter trafficking regulation number highly relevant including substance abuse, depression, schizophrenia, Parkinson's disease.
