The Drosophila vesicular monoamine transporter reduces pesticide-induced loss of dopaminergic neurons
Dopamine is cytotoxic and may play a role in the development of Parkinson's disease. However, its interaction with environmental risk factors such as pesticides remains poorly understood. The vesicular monoamine transporter (VMAT) regulates intracellular dopamine content, and we have tested the...
