Oops i made a mistake... it seems fluoxetine may work by increasing the sensitivity (expression) of D2 receptors in the nucleus accumbens, not by increasing the level of dopamine

> "In conclusion, the 5-HT-induced facilitation of NAc DA neurotransmission described in the literature may not be relevant to the therapeutic action of fluoxetine(3)."

interesting... why is it not relevant? ...
