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...
