Recent research has demonstrated that blockade of α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChR) inhibits METH- and MDMA-induced ROS production in striatal synaptosomes

That study you cited cant be more wrong! 
It doesnt account for astrogliosis, it was conducted on mice instead of primates, it was a 72hr study, and free oxygen radicals (ROS) are the number one culprit for neurotoxicity and BOTH create an influx in the striatal region that can BOTH be blocked at the nicotinic a7 receptors.

I wonder how many people she had to roll on to get 3 years probation. For over a pound of mush and 67 X pills just off the top of my head I thought she would be sentenced to 3-5 years in prison.

Seriously though, take a look at the literature and learn more about SERT, and striatal DA, and sustituted amphetamines man.
I promise to keep my chemistry stuff in chem and pharm from now on. I didnt realize it offended so many people in news.

No man, I know my science but I just don't like the word "methylenedioxidized", it just doesn't sound right. If I gave you meth could you methylenedioxidize it to MDMA?

They probably tested the Ecstasy and it came up positive as a methamphetamine, so it could be meth or mdma. Remember that it's easier to distinguish amphetamines from methamphetamines than amphetamines from methylenedioxidized amphetamines like MDA and MDMA. MDMA and Meth are both schedule 1 so the punishment is the same, further testing would have been irrelevant from a legal standpoint.

I know these people. They were a couple. It wasn’t meth, it was MDMA. They were caught together, no one snitched. Neither got any jail time. They stayed together for a bit afterward too. The only weird thing about all of this for people who knew them was that she was only 18. She seemed & acted much older, and everyone assumed she was in her mid 20s because she talked about how she graduated from art school. I wonder if he even knew her age, honestly.
