An investigation of the neurochemical mechanisms underlying the contrasting effects of d-amphetamine in two subregions of the rat anterior cingulate cortex

d-Amphetamine inhibits neuronal uptake, and causes impulse-independent release of monoamines. There are several reports that d-amphetamine increases glutamate efflux in the rat cerebral cortex, but this has not been investigated systematically.
