Methylenedioxymethamphetamine: a potentially neurotoxic amphetamine analogue.

C J Schmidt, L Wu, W Lovenberg.   

Abstract

The amphetamine analogue, methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) has received considerable attention recently as a novel and increasingly popular psychoactive agent. When administered acutely to rats in high doses, MDMA caused a selective and dramatic decrease in brain concentrations of serotonin and its metabolite, 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid. The depletion of serotonin and its metabolite persisted for up to at least one week after a single injection of MDMA at approximately four to five times the acute dose reported for humans. These results are discussed in terms of the possible neurotoxic effects of MDMA.
