(卤)3,4-Methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA, Ecstasy) is a synthetic ring-substituted amphetamine analog that produces a unique blend of stimulant and psychedelic effects. Considerable research demonstrates that MDMA has the potential to damage brain serotonin (5-HT)-containing neurons in animals, and...
MDMA stimulates the release of neurotransmitters, such as serotonin and norepinephrine, from brain neurons producing a high that lasts from 3 to 6 hours, but the length of a high is variable based on the user. The drug's rewarding effects vary with the individual taking it, the dose taken,...

MDMA boosts the brain’s production of feel-good neurotransmitters, causing a burst of euphoria and good will toward others. But the drug can also cause high blood pressure, memory problems, anxiety, irritability, and confusion. And repeated use can causelasting changes in the brain. ...
Effects of MDMA on the Human Nervous System 3Conclusions MDMAis a ring-substitutedamphetamineanalog with reinforcing psychoactive effects, in addition to neurotoxic potential toward central 5-HT neurons. Its major pharmacological effects appear to be secondary to actions at brain monoaminergic neurons, ...

Effects of MDMA on sociability and neural response to social threat and social reward(Psychopharmacology) The Effects of Acutely Administered 3,4-Methylenedioxymethamphetamine on Spontaneous Brain Function in Healthy Volunteers Measured with Arterial Spin Labeling and Blood Oxygen Level–Dependent Resting Stat...
s team from MedUni Vienna’s Center for Physiology and Pharmacology show, the new chemical compounds have a similar effect to MDMA on the relevant clinical target structures in the brain (such asserotonin,dopamine, and noradrenaline transporters), which are crucial for regulating mood and emotion....
Then, we will consider how the hyperthermic effects of these drugs are modulated under conditions that model human drug use (social interaction and warm ambient temperature). Since social interaction results in brain and body heat production, coupled with skin vasoconstriction that impairs heat loss ...
Ecstasy is a Schedule I substance under the Controlled Substances Act, which means that the DEA has determined that it has no medical benefit and a high potential for abuse.Its primary effects are in the brain on neurons that use the chemical serotonin to communicate with other neurons. The ...
