Now the hard work pays off, and PREP lab got another major publication accepted to Molecular Neurobiology. In this manuscript, we showed that PREP regulates dopamine levels in nigrostriatal pathway by reducing the phosphorylation of dopamine transporter (DAT). Removal of PREP leads to impaired DAT function, and elevates extracellular dopamine in striatum. Great work by Ulrika et al.! You can read the abstract of the article here.
