“…Members of the solute carrier 6 (SLC6) family of sodium-coupled transporters, also known as neurotransmitter sodium symporters, make up one of the most widely investigated and pharmacologically important classes (4,5). SLC6 proteins play a central role in diverse physiological processes, ranging from the maintenance of cellular osmotic pressure (6) to the reuptake of small-molecule neurotransmitters in the brain (7). SLC6 dysfunction is implicated in numerous debilitating illnesses, such as depression (8), obsessive-compulsive disorder (9), epilepsy (10), autism (11), orthostatic intolerance (12), X-linked creatine-deficiency syndrome (13), and retinal degeneration (14).…”
