| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this project, we characterized the expression and function of various organic solute transporters, such as amino acid transporter(s), dicarboxylate transporter(s), and opioide peptide transporters, in the central nervous system. After these experiments, functional regulation of these transporters was determined with neurochemical and biochemical techniques. We found that Na+-dependent enkephalin transporter, which is reported to be expressed in cultured neuronal cell line, is expressed functionally in mouse cerebrocortical neurons.
