Downregulation of the Vitamin D Receptor Regulated Gene Set in the Hippocampus After MDMA Treatment

The active ingredient of ecstasy, ±3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA), in addition to its initial reinforcing effects, induces selective and non-selective brain damage. Evidences suggest that the hippocampus (HC), a central region for cognition, may be especially vulnerable to impairments on t...
