It is reported that methamphetamine (METH) interacts with TAAR1 and subsequently inhibits DA uptake, enhance DA efflux and induces DAT internalization, and these effects are dependent on TAAR1 (Xie & Miller, 2009). For example, METH-induced inhibition of DA uptake was observed in TAAR1 and DAT cotransfected cells and WT mouse and monkey striatal synaptosomes but not in DAT-only transfected cells or in striatal synaptosomes of TAAR1-KO mice (Xie & Miller, 2009). TAAR1 activation was enhanced by co-expression of monoamine transporters and this effect could be blocked by monoamine transporter antagonists (Xie & Miller, 2007; Xie et al., 2007). Furthermore, DA activation of TAAR1 induced C-FOS-luciferase expression only in the presence of DAT (Xie et al., 2007).
While our data suggest a role for TAAR1 in eliciting amphetamine-like stimulant effects, it must be borne in mind that the observed in vivo effects are likely to result from interaction with both TAAR1 and monoamine transporters. Thus it has been shown that the selective TAAR1 agonist RO5166017 fully prevented psychostimulant-induced and persistent hyperdopaminergia-related hyperactivity in mice.42 This effect was found to be DAT-independent, since suppression of hyperactivity was observed in DAT-KO mice.42 The collected information leads us to conclude that TAAR1 is a stereoselective binding site for amphetamine and that TAAR1 activation by amphetamine and its congeners may contribute to the stimulant properties of this class of compounds.
Converging lines of evidence have solidified the notion that DA releasers are substrates of the transporter and once translocated, they reverse the normal direction of transporter flux to evoke release of endogenous neurotransmitters. The nature of this reversal is not well understood, but the entire process is primarily transporter-dependent and requires elevated intracellular sodium concentrations, phosphorylation of DAT, and possible involvement of transporter oligomers (Khoshbouei et al., 2003, 2004; Sitte and Freissmuth, 2010).
