Why is pcp more addictive than LSD?
PCP is more addictive than LSD because it works on Dopamine Receptors in the reward pathway. Normally, inhibitory neurotransmitters are active in the synapse. These neurotransmitters inhibit dopamine from being released. When endorphins activate the dopamine receptors, the release of inhibitory neurotransmitters is shut down. Without inhibition, dopamine can be released. PCP mimics endorphins and binds to opiate receptors, turning off dopamine inhibition. Dopamine is allowed to flood the synapse, producing immediate feelings of sedation and well-being. 10 bucks says your in Med Chem with Mr. Choi.
