Our work focuses on low-affinity, high-capacity monoamine transporters found on brain cells named astrocytes. The literature, and our preliminary data, suggests a special role for these transporters during chronic use of addictive drugs or during other situations leading to monoamine disbalance. Studying of these transporters give a new target for the pharmacotherapy to challenge monoamine disbalance and may eventually lead to a new treatments for some of these diseases.
