MDMA causes neurotoxicity, and anyone who says otherwise is blatently ignoring 30 years of research.
Although there are no specific MDMA/human studies (regarding Neurotoxicity) that I can think of, there are comparison studies to other ring substituted amphetamines like fenfluramine (pondimin) part of the phen-fen combo.
All of the human studies of Pondimin show conclusively that this drug causes a decrease in serotonin (5-ht) and multiple impairments in 5-HT function, along with dramatic decreases in postmortem tissue levels of 5-HT in numerous brain areas. The MDMA studies, show the exact same "markers"
MDMA was not created as an antidepressant, it was simply developed, like many other chemicals, patented, and then shelved
