Tryptophan Transport in Human Fibroblast Cells—A Functional Characterization

Tryptophan Transport in Human Fibroblast Cells—A Functional Characterization

There are indications that serotonergic neurotransmission is disturbed in several psychiatric disorders. One explanation may be disturbed transport of tryptophan (precursor for serotonin synthesis) across cell membranes. Human fibroblast cells offer an advantageous model to study the transport of am...
