Methylone (2-methylamino-1-[3,4-methylenedioxyphenyl]propane-1-one) is a synthetic hallucinogenic amphetamine analog, like MDMA (3,4-methylenedioxy- methamphetamine), considered to act on monoaminergic systems. However, the psychopharmacological profile of its cytotoxicity as a consequence of monoaminergic deficits remains unclear. We examined here the effects of methylone on the transporters...
5-Methoxy-N,N-diisopropyltryptamine (5-MeO-DIPT) is a synthetic orally active hallucinogenic tryptamine derivative, known also as Foxy or Foxy methoxy. However, few studies have examined its effects in vitro. In the present study, we investigated the actions of 5-MeO-DIPT against monoamine neurotransmitter transporters, including the transporters for dopamine (DAT), norepinephrine (NET), and...
