One example of interest is CaMKII, which has been well characterized as an effector of Ca2+ currents downstream of L-type Ca2+ channels [21,22]. Interestingly, DAT is a CaMKII substrate and phosphorylated DAT favors the reverse transport of dopamine [48,49], constituting a possible mechanism by which electrical activity and L-type Ca2+ channels may modulate DAT states and dopamine release. ... In summary, our results suggest that pharmacologically, S(+)AMPH is more potent than DA at activating hDAT-mediated depolarizing currents, leading to L-type Ca2+ channel activation, and the S(+)AMPH-induced current is more tightly coupled than DA to open L-type Ca2+ channels.
Despite the challenges in determining synaptic vesicle pH, the proton gradient across the vesicle membrane is of fundamental importance for its function. Exposure of isolated catecholamine vesicles to protonophores collapses the pH gradient and rapidly redistributes transmitter from inside to outside the vesicle. ... Amphetamine and its derivatives like methamphetamine are weak base compounds that are the only widely used class of drugs known to elicit transmitter release by a non-exocytic mechanism. As substrates for both DAT and VMAT, amphetamines can be taken up to the cytosol and then sequestered in vesicles, where they act to collapse the vesicular pH gradient.
Three important new aspects of TAs action have recently emerged: (a) inhibition of firing due to increased release of dopamine; (b) reduction of D2 and GABAB receptor-mediated inhibitory responses (excitatory effects due to disinhibition); and (c) a direct TA1 receptor-mediated activation of GIRK channels which produce cell membrane hyperpolarization.
AMPH also increases intracellular calcium (Gnegy et al., 2004) that is associated with calmodulin/CamKII activation (Wei et al., 2007) and modulation and trafficking of the DAT (Fog et al., 2006; Sakrikar et al., 2012).
AMPH and METH also stimulate DA efflux, which is thought to be a crucial element in their addictive properties [80], although the mechanisms do not appear to be identical for each drug [81]. These processes are PKCβ– and CaMK–dependent [72, 82], and PKCβ knock-out mice display decreased AMPH-induced efflux that correlates with reduced AMPH-induced locomotion [72].
Zinc binds at ... extracellular sites of the DAT [103], serving as a DAT inhibitor. In this context, controlled double-blind studies in children are of interest, which showed positive effects of zinc [supplementation] on symptoms of ADHD [105,106]. It should be stated that at this time [supplementation] with zinc is not integrated in any ADHD treatment algorithm.
They did not confirm the predicted straightforward relationship between uptake and release, but rather that some compounds including AMPH were better releasers than substrates for uptake. Zinc, moreover, stimulates efflux of intracellular [3H]DA despite its concomitant inhibition of uptake (Scholze et al., 2002).
The human dopamine transporter (hDAT) contains an endogenous high affinity Zn2+ binding site with three coordinating residues on its extracellular face (His193, His375, and Glu396). ... Although Zn2+ inhibited uptake, Zn2+ facilitated [3H]MPP+ release induced by amphetamine, MPP+, or K+-induced depolarization specifically at hDAT but not at the human serotonin and the norepinephrine transporter (hNET).
With regard to zinc supplementation, a placebo controlled trial reported that doses up to 30 mg/day of zinc were safe for at least 8 weeks, but the clinical effect was equivocal except for the finding of a 37% reduction in amphetamine optimal dose with 30 mg per day of zinc.110
Phenylpiracetam was originally designed as a nootropic drug for the sustenance and improvement of the physical condition and cognition abilities of Soviet space crews.2 Later, especially during the last decade, phenylpiracetam was introduced into general clinical practice in Russia and in some Eastern European countries. The possible target receptors and mechanisms for the acute activity of this drug remained unclear, until very recently it was found that (R)-phenylpiracetam (5) (MRZ-9547) is a selective dopamine transporter inhibitor that moderately stimulates striatal dopamine release.19
Here, we tested the effects of MRZ-9547 [...], and its l-enantiomer MRZ-9546 on effort-related decision making in rats. The racemic form of these compounds referred to as phenotropil has been shown to stimulate motor activity in rats (Zvejniece et al., 2011) and enhance physical capacity and cognition in humans (Malykh and Sadaie, 2010). [...] MRZ-9547 turned out to be a DAT inhibitor as shown by displacement of binding of [125I] RTI-55 (IC50 = 4.82 ± 0.05 μM, n=3) to human recombinant DAT expressed in CHO-K1 cells and inhibition of DA uptake (IC50 = 14.5 ± 1.6 μM, n=2) in functional assays in the same cells. It inhibited norepinephrine transporter (NET) with an IC50 of 182 μM (one experiment in duplicate). The potencies for the l-enantiomer MRZ-9546 were as follows: DAT binding (Ki = 34.8 ± 14.8 μM, n=3), DAT function (IC50 = 65.5 ± 8.3 μM, n=2) and NET function (IC50 = 667 μM, one experiment performed in duplicate).
In a study performed by Sommer et al. (2014), healthy rats treated with the selective dopamine transport (DAT) inhibitor MRZ-9547 (Fig. 1) chose high effort, high reward more often than their untreated matched controls. Unlike similar studies, however, depressive symptoms were not induced before treatment; rather, baseline healthy controls were compared to healthy rats treated with MRZ-9547. [...] In one study, the selective DAT inhibitor MRZ-9547 increased the number of lever presses more than untreated controls (Sommer et al., 2014). The investigators concluded that such effort-based "decision making in rodents could provide an animal model for motivational dysfunctions related to effort expenditure such as fatigue, e.g. in Parkinson's disease or major depression." Based upon the findings with MRZ-9547, they suggested that this drug mechanism might be a valuable therapeutic entity for fatigue in neurological and neuropsychiatric disorders. [...] A high effort bias been reported with bupropion (Randall et al., 2015), lisdexamfetamine (Yohn etal., 2016e), and the DA uptake blockers MRZ-9547 (Sommer et al., 2014), PRX-14040 (Fig. 1) (Yohn et al., 2016d) and GBR12909 (Fig. 1) (Yohn et al., 2016c).
