An absence of uptake mechanisms is probably too strong a contention.  The
action is primarily at extrajunctional receptors, and so I would expect
that the density of uptake enzymes would be less than at a synaptic
density, however, I should have thought that they were still bound to
be present.  I agree however that these actions, and that of the extent
of neurotransmitter drift, are important issues for investigation.
