Recently it was hypothesized by others that the D 2 dopamine receptor can regulate the uptake
of dopamine. However, the evidence in support of this hypothesis, although compelling, …

Rats that have a greater locomotor response to novelty (high responders, HR) have differences
in measures of presynaptic dopamine transmission compared to low responders (LR) to …

The apparent second‐order association rate constant of dopamine binding to the striatal
transporter (∼1 ± 10 6 M −1 s −1 ) as well as the transporter turnover number (∼1.5 s −1 ) was …

… , 1989, 1990), and although it is larger than that published previously by others it has been
shown by a kinetic test of consistency to represent the same transport system (Meiergerd and …

Experiments were conducted to determine how (−)‐cocaine and S(+)‐amphetamine binding
sites relate to each other and to the catechol substrate site on the striatal dopamine …

… The tissue was chopped and placed into 500 μl physiological buffer as described by Meiergerd
and Schenk [31]and maintained at 37C in a temperature-controlled chamber. The tissue …

… The TN and k~s values were estimated following the procedures outlined by Meiergerd
and Schenk [14] (which are based on the work of Fersht [15] and Stein [16]) using …

… Experimental validation of this apparent kinetic condition was given by Meiergerd and
Schenk (1994a,b). The experiments with striatal suspensions prepared from CSECOC animals …

… study of the transport of DA (Meiergerd and Schenk, 1994a). Subsequently, the numerical
value of k ass was confirmed by apparent presteady-state kinetics (Meiergerd et al., 1994b). …
