Long-Term Exposure of RN46A Cells Expressing Serotonin Transporter (SERT) to a cAMP Analog Up-regulates SERT Activity and Is Accompanied by Neural Differentiation of the Cells

To examine the functional regulation of serotonin transporter (SERT) by cAMP, we examined whether SERT uptake activity was affected by dibutyryl cAMP (dbcAMP), a cAMP analog, in SERT-transfected RN46A cells derived from embryonic rat raphe neurons. Long-term exposure (> 4 h) of dbcAMP (1 mM) to S...
