Neurotransmission of cognition, part 1, Dopamine is a hitchhiker in frontal cortex: norepinephrine transporters regulate dopamine
Abstract
Since the frontal cortex has a low density of dopamine transporters, dopamine has to be inactivated there by hitching a ride on the norepinephrine transporter of neighboring norepinephrine neurons.
