DA
what NT is involved in meth?
DA + NE
what NT is involved in alcohol?
GABA + Glut
what NT is involved in cocaine
DA
what NT is involved in LSD
5-HT
what is the moa of heroin?
binds to opiate Rs, shuts down inhibitory NTs; DA flood
what is the moa of ecstasy?
ecstasy is taken up by the 5-HT transporters. transporters send 5-HT out of the cell and into the synapse to repeatedly bind to the Rs and excite the cell
what is the moa of marijuana?
binds to cannabinoid Rs, shuts down inhibitory NTs; DA flood
what is the moa of meth?
meth is taken up by the DA transporters. transporters send DA out of the cell and into the synapse to repeatedly bind to the Rs and excite the cell
what is the moa of alcohol?
increase inhibitory effects of GABA. binds to Glut Rs, preventing Glut from binding to and exciting the cell
what is the moa of cocaine?
blocks DA transporters, excess DA becomes trapped in synapse and repeatedly binds to Rs and overstimulates the cell
what is the moa of LSD?
mimics 5-HT and binds to Rs; inhibit or excite
