OverviewAI-generated summary
Justin R. Nickell's research focuses on the neuropharmacological effects of substances, particularly in relation to vesicular monoamine transporter-2 (VMAT2) inhibition. His work investigates how VMAT2 inhibitors can mitigate the toxic effects of stimulants like methamphetamine on dopamine systems. A recent publication demonstrates that the VMAT2 inhibitor JPC-141 effectively prevents methamphetamine-induced dopamine toxicity and blocks methamphetamine self-administration in rat models. Nickell's scholarship includes 33 publications with 639 citations and an h-index of 14. He has collaborated with researchers including Peter A. Crooks, Cassie M. Chandler, John P. Culver, and A. George Wilson at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences.
