Preferential localization of a vesicular monoamine transporter to dense core vesicles in PC12 cells. [PDF]
Journal of Cell Biology, 1994 Neurons and endocrine cells have two types of secretory vesicle that undergo regulated exocytosis. Large dense core vesicles (LDCVs) store neural peptides whereas small clear synaptic vesicles store classical neurotransmitters such as acetylcholine ...

Monoaminylation in Human Health and Disease: State of the Field, Challenges, and Emerging Directions. [PDF]
Adv Sci (Weinh)This review delineates monoaminylation—serotonylation, dopaminylation, and histaminylation—as key post‐translational modifications beyond receptor signaling. It details their catalytic mechanisms, roles in gene expression and protein function, and implications in health and disease, aiming to bridge mechanistic insights with therapeutic potential ...

Lipid peroxidation and apoptotic response in rat brain areas induced by long-term administration of nandrolone: the mutual crosstalk between ROS and NF-kB [PDF]
, 2016 The aim of this study was to evaluate the played by oxidative stress in the apoptotic response in different brain areas of rats chronically treated with supra-physiological doses of nandrolone decanoate (ND).

Effects of protein kinase inhibitors and protein phosphatase inhibitors on cyclic AMP‐dependent down‐regulation of vesicular monoamine transport in pheochromocytoma PC12 cells [PDF]
FEBS Letters, 1995 Cyclic AMP down‐regulates vesicular monoamine transport in PC12 cells and thereby decreased catecholamine reuptake from the extracellular fluid. We examined the effects of protein kinase inhibitors and protein phosphatase inhibitors on this cAMP action.

Loss of vesicular dopamine release precedes tauopathy in degenerative dopaminergic neurons in a Drosophila model expressing human tau. [PDF]
, 2013 While a number of genome-wide association studies have identified microtubule-associated protein tau as a strong risk factor for Parkinson's disease (PD), little is known about the mechanism through which human tau can predispose an individual to this ...

Organic Cation Transporter 3 (OCT3) Is Localized to Intracellular and Surface Membranes in Select Glial and Neuronal Cells Within the Basolateral Amygdaloid Complex of Both Rats and Mice [PDF]
, 2016 Organic cation transporter 3 (OCT3) is a high-capacity, low-affinity transporter that mediates corticosterone-sensitive uptake of monoamines including norepinephrine, epinephrine, dopamine, histamine and serotonin. OCT3 is expressed widely throughout the

Vesicular monoamine transporter protein expression correlates with clinical features, tumor biology, and MIBG avidity in neuroblastoma: a report from the Children’s Oncology Group [PDF]
European Journal of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging, 2015 Vesicular monoamine transporters 1 and 2 (VMAT1 and VMAT2) are thought to mediate MIBG uptake in adult neuroendocrine tumors. In neuroblastoma, the norepinephrine transporter (NET) has been investigated as the principal MIBG uptake protein, though some tumors without NET expression concentrate MIBG.

HID-1 controls formation of large dense core vesicles by influencing cargo sorting and trans-Golgi network acidification [PDF]
, 2017 Large dense core vesicles (LDCVs) mediate the regulated release of neuropeptides and peptide hormones. They form at the trans-Golgi network (TGN), where their soluble content aggregates to form a dense core, but the mechanisms controlling biogenesis are ...

Drosophila modifier screens to identify novel neuropsychiatric drugs including aminergic agents for the possible treatment of Parkinson's disease and depression. [PDF]
, 2014 Small molecules that increase the presynaptic function of aminergic cells may provide neuroprotection in Parkinson's disease (PD) as well as treatments for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and depression.

Analysis of Synaptic Proteins in the Cerebrospinal Fluid as a New Tool in the Study of Inborn Errors of Neurotransmission [PDF]
, 2011 In a few rare diseases, specialised studies in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) are required to identify the underlying metabolic disorder. We aimed to explore the possibility of detecting key synaptic proteins in the CSF, in particular dopaminergic and ...
