[ 11C]metoclopramide is a sensitive radiotracer to measure moderate decreases in P-glycoprotein function at the blood-brain barrier. J Cereb Blood Flow Metab 2024; 44:142-152. [PMID: 37728771 PMCID: PMC10905639 DOI: 10.1177/0271678x231202336] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/15/2023] [Revised: 08/23/2023] [Accepted: 08/27/2023] [Indexed: 09/21/2023]
Abstract
The efflux transporter P-glycoprotein (P-gp) at the blood-brain barrier limits the cerebral uptake of various xenobiotics. To assess the sensitivity of [11C]metoclopramide to measure decreased cerebral P-gp function, we performed [11C]metoclopramide PET scans without (baseline) and with partial P-gp inhibition by tariquidar in wild-type, heterozygous Abcb1a/b(+/-) and homozygous Abcb1a/b(-/-) mice as models with controlled levels of cerebral P-gp expression. Brains were collected to quantify P-gp expression with immunohistochemistry. Brain uptake of [11C]metoclopramide was expressed as the area under the brain time-activity curve (AUCbrain) and compared with data previously obtained with (R)-[11C]verapamil and [11C]N-desmethyl-loperamide. Abcb1a/b(+/-) mice had intermediate P-gp expression compared to wild-type and Abcb1a/b(-/-) mice. In baseline scans, all three radiotracers were able to discriminate Abcb1a/b(-/-) from wild-type mice (2.5- to 4.6-fold increased AUCbrain, p ≤ 0.0001). However, only [11C]metoclopramide could discriminate Abcb1a/b(+/-) from wild-type mice (1.46-fold increased AUCbrain, p ≤ 0.001). After partial P-gp inhibition, differences in [11C]metoclopramide AUCbrain between Abcb1a/b(+/-) and wild-type mice (1.39-fold, p ≤ 0.001) remained comparable to baseline. There was a negative correlation between baseline [11C]metoclopramide AUCbrain and ex-vivo-measured P-gp immunofluorescence (r = -0.9875, p ≤ 0.0001). Our data suggest that [11C]metoclopramide is a sensitive radiotracer to measure moderate, but (patho-)physiologically relevant decreases in cerebral P-gp function without the need to co-administer a P-gp inhibitor.

Abstract
Drug combination therapy is the most common pharmacological strategy for hypertension management. No pharmacogenetic biomarkers for guiding hypertension pharmacotherapy are available to date. The study population were 64 volunteers from seven bioequivalence trials investigating formulations with valsartan, olmesartan and/or hydrochlorothiazide. Every volunteer was genotyped for 10 genetic variants in different transporters' genes. Additionally, valsartan-treated volunteers were genotyped for 29 genetic variants in genes encoding for different metabolizing enzymes. Variability in pharmacokinetic parameters such as maximum concentration (Cmax) and time to reach it (tmax), the incidence of adverse drug reactions (ADRs) and blood pressure measurements were analyzed as a function of pharmacogenetic and demographic parameters. Individuals with the ABCB1 rs1045642 T/T genotype were associated with a higher valsartan tmax compared to those with T/G and G/G genotypes (p < 0.001, β = 0.821, R2 = 0.459) and with a tendency toward a higher postural dizziness incidence (11.8% vs. 0%, p = 0.070). A higher hydrochlorothiazide dose/weight (DW)-corrected area under the curve (AUC∞/DW) was observed in SLC22A1 rs34059508 G/A volunteers compared to G/G volunteers (p = 0.050, β = 1047.35, R2 = 0.051), and a tendency toward a higher postural dizziness incidence (50% vs. 1.6%, p = 0.063). Sex impacted valsartan and hydrochlorothiazide pharmacokinetics, showing a lower exposure in women, whereas no significant differences were found for olmesartan pharmacokinetics.

Abstract
This case comparison illustrates pharmacogenetic testing in psychotropic and clinical management in relation to the ABCB1 gene, which encodes the P-glycoprotein transporter affecting blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability. Two pediatric patients (9 and 11 years old) were selected for similar clinical presentations with opposing ABCB1 genotype, while they were identically matched for key CYP450, dopaminergic and serotonergic genes (CYP2C9, CYP2C19, DRD2, SLC6A4, 5HTR2A). Case A was functional for the ABCB1 gene (G/G rs1045642), suggesting that the BBB had a functional P-glycoprotein transporter. Case B was subfunctional for the ABCB1 gene (A/A rs1045642), suggesting that the patient's BBB may be permeable to psychotropic drugs. Case A had more medication trials and dose adjustments than Case B. Case A had two inpatient admissions and interspersed emergency room visits, while case B had none.

Abstract
Abstract
There are now 9 available FDA-approved second-generation long-acting injectable antipsychotics including aripiprazole (3), olanzapine (1), paliperidone (3), and risperidone (2). These high-cost medications are commonly used with the goal of improving adherence and patient outcomes. With almost 2 decades of use, key aspects have been well studied, including population pharmacokinetics, CYP interactions and various clinical and economic outcomes. However, there are still unknowns with these medications. Issues including adherence, transition from oral antipsychotics, renal dosing, pharmacogenomics, and managing missed doses will be addressed in the context of 4 patient cases.

Abstract
P-glycoprotein, the encoded product of the MDR1 / ABCB1 gene in humans, is expressed in numerous tissues including brain capillary endothelial cells and restricts the distribution of xenobiotics into the brain as an efflux pump. Although a large number of single nucleotide polymorphisms in the MDR1 gene have been identified, the influence of the nonsynonymous 2677G>T/A single nucleotide polymorphism on P-glycoprotein at the blood-brain barrier has remained unclear. In the present study, we developed a novel P-glycoprotein humanized mouse line carrying the 2677G>T mutation by utilizing a mouse artificial chromosome vector constructed by genetic engineering technology and we evaluated the influence of 2677G>T on the expression and function of P-glycoprotein at the blood-brain barrier in vivo . The results of this study showed that the introduction of the 2677G>T mutation does not alter the expression levels of P-glycoprotein protein in the brain capillary fraction. On the other hand, the brain penetration of verapamil, a representative substrate of P-glycoprotein, was increased by the introduction of the 2677G>T mutation. These results suggested that the 2677G>T single nucleotide polymorphism may attenuate the function of P-glycoprotein, resulting in increased brain penetration of P-glycoprotein substrates, without altering the expression levels of P-glycoprotein protein in the blood-brain barrier. This mutant mouse line is a useful model for elucidating the influence of an MDR1 gene single nucleotide polymorphism on the expression and function of P-glycoprotein at the blood-brain barrier.

Abstract
Besides the broad development of nanotechnological approaches for cancer diagnosis and therapy, currently, there is no significant progress in the treatment of different types of brain tumors. Therapeutic molecules crossing the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and reaching an appropriate targeting ability remain the key challenges. Many invasive and non-invasive methods, and various types of nanocarriers and their hybrids have been widely explored for brain tumor treatment. However, unfortunately, no crucial clinical translations were observed to date. In particular, chemotherapy and surgery remain the main methods for the therapy of brain tumors. Exploring the mechanisms of the BBB penetration in detail and investigating advanced drug delivery platforms are the key factors that could bring us closer to understanding the development of effective therapy against brain tumors. In this review, we discuss the most relevant aspects of the BBB penetration mechanisms, observing both invasive and non-invasive methods of drug delivery. We also review the recent progress in the development of functional drug delivery platforms, from viruses to cell-based vehicles, for brain tumor therapy. The destructive potential of chemotherapeutic drugs delivered to the brain tumor is also considered. This review then summarizes the existing challenges and future prospects in the use of drug delivery platforms for the treatment of brain tumors.

Abstract
The aim of the present review article is to summarize the role of nanodiamonds in various neurological diseases. We have taken related literature of making this review article from ScienceDirect, springer, Research gate, PubMed, Sci-finder, etc. The current approaches for treating neurological conditions such as glioblastoma includes chemotherapy or combination anti-retro viral therapy for HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) or use of anti-Alzheimer drugs during cognitive impairment. These approaches can provide only symptomatic relief as they do not target the cause of the disease due to their inability to penetrate the blood brain barrier. On long-term use, they may cause CNS toxicity due to accumulation in the brain. So nanodiamonds could prove as a promising approach in the brain targeting of the bioactive and to treat many neurological disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, brain tumor (glioblastoma), HIV, amyotrophic multiple sclerosis, Huntington disease, stroke (cerebrovascular attack), batten disease, schizophrenia, epilepsy, and bacterial infections (encephalitis, sepsis, and meningitis) due to their ability to penetrate the blood-brain barrier and owing to their excellent surface properties, i.e., nano size and high surface area, ease of functionalization, multiple drug binding, and biocompatibility; they can be useful for brain targeted drug delivery with minimal side effects.

Abstract
There are significant differences between men and women in the efficacy and tolerability of antipsychotic drugs. Here, we provide a comprehensive overview of what is currently known about the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of antipsychotics in women with schizophrenia spectrum disorders (SSDs) and translate these insights into considerations for clinical practice. Slower drug absorption, metabolism and excretion in women all lead to higher plasma levels, which increase the risk for side-effects. Moreover, women reach higher dopamine receptor occupancy compared to men at similar serum levels, since oestrogens increase dopamine sensitivity. As current treatment guidelines are based on studies predominantly conducted in men, women are likely to be overmedicated by default. The risk of overmedicating generally increases when sex hormone levels are high (e.g. during ovulation and gestation), whereas higher doses may be required during low-hormonal phases (e.g. during menstruation and menopause). For premenopausal women, with the exceptions of quetiapine and lurasidone, doses of antipsychotics should be lower with largest adjustments required for olanzapine. Clinicians should be wary of side-effects that are particularly harmful in women, such as hyperprolactinaemia which can cause oestrogen deficiency and metabolic symptoms that may cause cardiovascular diseases. Given the protective effects of oestrogens on the course of SSD, oestrogen replacement therapy should be considered for postmenopausal patients, who are more vulnerable to side-effects and yet require higher dosages of most antipsychotics to reach similar efficacy. In conclusion, there is a need for tailored, female-specific prescription guidelines, which take into account adjustments required across different phases of life.

Abstract
Strategies to personalize psychopharmacological treatment promise to improve efficacy and tolerability. We measured serotonin transporter occupancy immediately after infusion of the widely prescribed P-glycoprotein substrate citalopram and assessed to what extent variants of the ABCB1 gene affect drug target engagement in the brain in vivo. A total of 79 participants (39 female) including 31 patients with major depression and 48 healthy volunteers underwent two PET/MRI scans with the tracer [11C]DASB and placebo-controlled infusion of citalopram (8 mg) in a cross-over design. We tested the effect of six ABCB1 single nucleotide polymorphisms and found lower SERT occupancy in ABCB1 rs2235015 minor allele carriers (n = 26, MAF = 0.18) compared to major allele homozygotes (t73 = 2.73, pFWE < 0.05) as well as in men compared to women (t73 = 3.33, pFWE < 0.05). These effects were robust to correction for citalopram plasma concentration, age and diagnosis. From occupancy we derived the ratio of occupied to unoccupied SERT, because in theory this measure is equal to the product of drug affinity and concentration at target sites. A model combining genotype with basic clinical variables, predicted that, at the same dosage, occupied to unoccupied SERT ratio was -14.48 ± 5.38% lower in rs2235015 minor allele carriers, +19.10 ± 6.95% higher in women, -4.83 ± 2.70% lower per 10 kg bodyweight, and -2.68 ± 3.07% lower per 10 years of age. Our results support the exploration of clinical algorithms with adjustment of initial citalopram dosing and highlight the potential of imaging-genetics for precision pharmacotherapy in psychiatry.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Antidepressant drugs are mainly used to treat depression clinically. ABCB1 affects the P-glycoprotein activity and changes the amount of drugs in the blood tissue barrier that can be squeezed back into the blood, thus affecting the efficacy of antidepressants. In this present study, Meta-analysis was performed to further investigate the influences of ABCB1 gene polymorphism on antidepressant response. METHODS Relevant literatures were searched from the PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure, Chinese Science and Technique Journals Database, China Biology Medicine disc, and Wan Fang databases up to May 2021 without any language restrictions. STATA 16.0 software was applied for this meta-analysis. Odds ratio (OR) and its corresponding 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated. RESULTS The results of this meta-analysis will be submitted to a peer-reviewed journal for publication. CONCLUSION This meta-analysis will summarize the effects of ABCB1 gene polymorphism on antidepressant response.

Prog Neuropsychopharmacol Biol Psychiatry 2021; 109:110241.

Abstract
BACKGROUND LY03004, a novel investigational risperidone long-acting injection (LAI) microsphere formulation, can release risperidone more quickly after injection than Risperdal Consta®. This study aimed to investigate the effects of genetic polymorphisms on the pharmacokinetics of LY03004 compared with those on Risperdal Consta®. METHODS A total of 100 Chinese patients with stable schizophrenia were randomly assigned to the LY03004 or Risperdal Consta® treatment group. Each patient received five biweekly intramuscular injections of 25 mg risperidone long-acting injection microspheres. A total of 34 blood samples before and after injections from Day 1 to Day 113 were collected from each patient, and polymorphic alleles of cytochrome P450 enzymes CYP2D6 (*4, *10, *14), CYP3A5 (*3), and ABCB1 (C1236 > T, G2677T/A, and C3435T) were analyzed using Sanger sequencing and polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism. RESULTS The risperidone Cmax,ss, Cmin,ss, AUC0-tau,ss, and the ratio of risperidone to 9-hydroxyrisperidone (9-OH-R) in CYP2D6 intermediate metabolizers (IMs) were significantly different compared with those in normal metabolizers (NMs) in both the LY03004 and Risperdal Consta® groups (P < 0.05). However, 9-OH-R was not significantly different between IMs and NMs (P > 0.05). The AUC0-tau,ss of the active moiety (risperidone plus 9-OH-R) was 6.51 ± 3.34 in NMs and 7.00 ± 1.81 in IMs (P = 0.071) in the LY03004 group and 6.07 ± 2.31 and 7.95 ± 3.42 (P = 0.053) in NMs and IMs, respectively, in the Risperdal Consta® group. In the LY03004 group, the Cmax,ss of risperidone in carriers of the ABCB1-C3435T TT variant was significantly lower than that in CC and CT carriers (TT 7.76 ± 4.23 ng/mL, CT 11.6 ± 8.27 ng/mL, CC 14.3 ± 7.66 ng/ml; P = 0.045), but no significant differences were found in the active moiety. In the Risperdal Consta® group, C3435T TT carriers had significantly lower Cmin,ss of the active moiety (TT 5.09 ± 4.38 ng/mL, CT 11.4 ± 8.42 ng/mL, CC 14.3 ± 6.43 ng/mL; P = 0.007). Furthermore, Cmin,ss of the active moiety was significantly different among all ABCB1-G2677T/A genotypes (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION The pharmacokinetics of risperidone and the ratio of risperidone to 9-OH-R were highly dependent on CYP2D6 activity. However, there was no significant effect in 9-OH-R. A future study involving a larger sample is required to verify whether CYP2D6 IMs have lower risperidone active moiety clearance than CYP2D6 NMs for LAI formulations. In addition, the risperidone active moiety was eliminated faster in ABCB1-G2677T/A and C3435T TT carriers receiving Risperdal Consta®.

Int J Legal Med 2021; 135:473-482. [PMID: 33454797 PMCID: PMC7870766 DOI: 10.1007/s00414-021-02502-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/10/2020] [Accepted: 01/04/2021] [Indexed: 01/16/2023]
Abstract
Methadone is an opioid that often leads to fatalities. Interpretation of toxicological findings can be challenging if no further information about the case history is available. The aims of this study were (1) to determine whether brain/blood ratios can assist in the interpretation of methadone findings in fatalities; (2) to examine whether polymorphisms in the gene encoding the P-glycoprotein (also known as multidrug resistance protein 1 (MDR1) or ATP-binding cassette sub-family B member 1 (ABCB1)), which functions as a multispecific efflux pump in the blood-brain barrier, affect brain/blood ratios of methadone. Femoral venous blood and brain tissue (medulla oblongata and cerebellum) from 107 methadone-related deaths were analysed for methadone by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. In addition, all the samples were genotyped for three common ABCB1 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs rs1045642, rs1128503, and rs2032582) using ion-pair reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ICEMS). In nearly all cases, methadone concentrations were higher in the brain than in the blood. Inter-individual brain/blood ratios varied (0.6-11.6); the mean ratio was 2.85 (standard deviation 1.83, median 2.35). Moreover, significant differences in mean brain/blood ratios were detected among the synonymous genotypes of rs1045642 in ABCB1 (p = 0.001). Cases with the T/T genotype had significantly higher brain/blood ratios than cases with the other genotypes (T/T vs. T/C difference (d) = 1.54, 95% CI [1.14, 2.05], p = 0.002; T/T vs. C/C d = 1.60, 95% CI [1.13, 2.29], p = 0.004). Our results suggest that the rs1045642 polymorphisms in ABCB1 may affect methadone concentrations in the brain and its site of action and may be an additional factor influencing methadone toxicity.

Abstract
Genetic factors play a significant but complex role in antidepressant (AD) response and tolerability. During recent years, there is growing enthusiasm in the promise of pharmacogenetic/pharmacogenomic (PGx) tools for optimizing and personalizing treatment outcomes for patients with major depressive disorder (MDD). The influence of pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic genes on response and tolerability has been investigated, including those encoding the cytochrome P450 superfamily, P-glycoprotein, monoaminergic transporters and receptors, intracellular signal transduction pathways, and the stress hormone system. Genome-wide association studies are also identifying new genetic variants associated with AD response phenotypes, which, combined with methods such as polygenic risk scores (PRS), is opening up new avenues for novel personalized treatment approaches for MDD. This chapter describes the basic concepts in PGx of AD response, reviews the major pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic genes involved in AD outcome, discusses PRS as a promising approach for predicting AD efficacy and tolerability, and addresses key challenges to the development and application of PGx tests.

Abstract
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common form of brain cancer and one of the most aggressive cancers found in humans. Most of the signs and symptoms of GBM can be mild and slowly aggravated, although other symptoms might demonstrate it as an acute ailment. However, the precise mechanisms of the development of GBM remain unknown. Due to the improvement of molecular pathology, current researches have reported that glioma progression is strongly connected with different types of epigenetic phenomena, such as histone modifications, DNA methylation, chromatin remodeling, and aberrant microRNA. Furthermore, the genes and the proteins that control these alterations have become novel targets for treating glioma because of the reversibility of epigenetic modifications. In some cases, gene mutations including P16, TP53, and EGFR, have been observed in GBM. In contrast, monosomies, including removals of chromosome 10, particularly q23 and q25-26, are considered the standard markers for determining the development and aggressiveness of GBM. Recently, amid the epigenetic therapies, histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACIs) and DNA methyltransferase inhibitors have been used for treating tumors, either single or combined. Specifically, HDACIs are served as a good choice and deliver a novel pathway to treat GBM. In this review, we focus on the epigenetics of GBM and the consequence of its mutations. We also highlight various treatment approaches, namely gene editing, epigenetic drugs, and microRNAs to combat GBM.

Abstract
Since its inception, PET imaging of the nervous system and neuropsychiatric disease has focused on the brain. Although this has resulted in many important contributions to basic science and clinical medicine, PET has not been used to explore nervous system physiology and disease throughout the remainder of the body. Our understanding of neurologic disorders has also changed during this period, and we are beginning to realize that many neuropsychiatric diseases manifest throughout the entire body. Thus, whole-body PET imaging with the Explorer instrument represents an exciting tool to address important questions in pathophysiology and develop novel pharmacologic strategies.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is one of the most common neurodegenerative diseases and is caused by accumulation of amyloid-β (Aβ) peptide and is associated with neurological abnormalities in learning and memory. The protective role of curcumin on nerve cells, along with a potent antioxidant and free radical scavenging activity, has been widely studied. However, its low bioavailability and limited transport ability across the blood-brain barrier are two major drawbacks of its application in the treatment of different neurodegenerative diseases. The present study was designed to improve the effectiveness of curcumin in the treatment of Aβ-induced cognitive deficiencies in a rat model of AD by loading it into nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs). The accumulation rate of curcumin (505.76±38.4 ng/g-1 h) in rat brain, as well as its serum levels, were significantly increased by using curcumin-loaded NLCs. The effective role of NLCs for brain delivery of curcumin was confirmed by reduced oxidative stress parameters (ROS formation, lipid peroxidation, and ADP/ATP ratio) in the hippocampal tissue and improvement of spatial memory. Also, histopathological studies revealed the potential of Cur-NLCs in decreasing the hallmarks of Aβ in AD in the animal model. The result of studying the neuroprotective potential of Cur-NLC in both pre-treatment and treatment modes showed that loading curcumin in NLCs is an effective strategy for increasing curcumin delivery to the brain and reducing Aβ-induced neurological abnormalities and memory defects and that it can be the basis for further studies in the area of AD prevention and treatment.

Abstract
Introduction Hyperprolactinaemia, a common adverse effect of antipsychotic drugs, is primarily linked to blockade of dopamine D2 receptors in the pituitary gland. Certain antipsychotic drugs, such as, for example risperidone and paliperidone, are more likely to induce hyperprolactinaemia compared to others. This effect is probably caused by a relatively high blood/brain concentration ratio, a consequence of being a substrate of P‐glycoprotein. Genetic variants of P‐glycoprotein with changed functional activity might influence the potential of risperidone and paliperidone to cause hyperprolactinaemia as the altered blood/brain concentration ratio would lead to a reduced therapeutic drug level within essential brain areas making dose adaptations necessary. This increases exposure of dopamine D2 receptors within the pituitary gland. Aims To investigate possible associations between MDR1/ABCB1 gene polymorphisms and antipsychotic drug‐induced hyperprolactinaemia in Russian patients with schizophrenia and to determine possible differences between risperidone/paliperidone and other antipsychotics. Methods In total, 446 patients with schizophrenia were included from 3 psychiatric hospitals in Siberia. Blood samples were obtained in a cross‐sectional study design for DNA extraction and prolactin measurement. Associations between hyperprolactinaemia and 8 MDR1/ABCB1 gene‐polymorphisms were assessed using logistic regression analysis accounting for covariates. The analysis was repeated in a patient subgroup using risperidone or paliperidone. Results We did not observe an association between any of the 8 single nucleotide polymorphisms and the prevalence of antipsychotic‐induced hyperprolactinaemia in the total patient population. However, in the risperidone/paliperidone subgroup, the single nucleotide polymorphism rs2032582 (G2677T) was found to be negatively associated with risperidone/paliperidone‐induced hyperprolactinaemia. Conclusion This study revealed a significant association between the ABCB1 gene polymorphism rs2032582 (G2677T) and risperidone/paliperidone‐induced hyperprolactinaemia.

Abstract
PURPOSE We aimed to study the pharmacokinetics of methadone and buprenorphine in blood and oral fluid after single-dose administration and investigate correlations between concentrations in blood and neurocognitive functions. METHODS A 5-way, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-dummy, crossover study was performed to study the pharmacokinetics and neurocognitive effects of methadone (5 and 10 mg per oral) and buprenorphine (0.2 and 0.4 mg sublingual) in 22 healthy volunteers. Blood and oral fluid were collected throughout the test days, and drug concentrations in both matrices were analyzed using ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. On-road driving testing, neurocognitive computerized tests, and subjective questionnaires were performed. RESULTS Large individual variations in concentrations of methadone and buprenorphine in blood and oral fluid, and accordingly oral fluid/blood drug concentration ratios, were observed. The mean ratio 6.5 hours after drug administration was 2.0 (range, 0.49-7.39) for methadone after both doses. Buprenorphine was not detected above the limit of quantification in blood after 6.5 hours. No significant correlation between methadone concentration in blood and effect was found. Significant correlations were found between buprenorphine concentration in blood and standard deviation of lateral position in the driving test and some measures of reaction time, divided attention, balance, alertness, contentedness. and sleepiness. CONCLUSIONS Concentrations of methadone and buprenorphine in blood and oral fluid showed large interindividual variations. No concentration-effect correlations were found for methadone, whereas low to moderate correlations were observed between buprenorphine concentration and driving, psychomotor function, and subjective rating of sleep and alertness.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Artemisinin was isolated and identified in 1972, which was the starting point for a new era in antimalarial drug therapy. Furthermore, numerous studies have demonstrated that artemisinin and its derivatives exhibit considerable anticancer activity both in vitro, in vivo, and even in clinical Phase I/II trials. P-glycoprotein (P-gp) mediated multi-drug resistance (MDR) is one of the most serious causes of chemotherapy failure in cancer treatment. Interestingly, many artemisinin derivatives exhibit excellent ability to overcome P-gp mediated MDR and even show collateral sensitivity against MDR cancer cells. Furthermore, some artemisinin derivatives show P-gp-mediated MDR reversal activity. Therefore, the interaction between P-gp and artemisinin derivatives is important to develop novel combination treatment protocols with artemisinin derivatives and established anticancer drugs that are P-gp substrates. PURPOSE This systematic review provides an updated overview on the interaction between artemisinin derivatives and P-gp and the effect of artemisinin derivatives on the P-gp expression level. RESULTS Artemisinin derivatives exhibit multi-specific interactions with P-gp. The currently used artemisinin derivatives are not transported by P-gp. However, some of novel synthetized artemisinin derivatives exhibit P-gp substrate properties. Furthermore, many artemisinin derivatives act as P-gp inhibitors, which exhibit the potential to reverse MDR towards clinically used anticancer drugs. CONCLUSION Therefore, studies on the interaction between artemisinin derivatives and P-gp provide important information for the development of novel anti-cancer artemisinin derivatives to reverse P-gp mediated MDR and for the design of rational artemisinin-based combination therapies against cancer.

Abstract
The P-glycoprotein is an efflux transporter that expels substances out of the
cells and has an important impact on the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties
of drugs. The study of the interactions between ligands and the P-glycoprotein has
implications in the design of Central Nervous System drugs and their transport across the
blood-brain barrier. Moreover, since the P-glycoprotein is overexpressed in some types of
cancers, the protein is responsible for expelling the drug therapies from the cells, and
hence, for drug resistance. In this review, we describe different P-glycoprotein binding
sites reported for substrates, inhibitors and modulators, and focus on molecular docking
studies that provide useful information about drugs and P-glycoprotein interactions.
Docking in crystallized structures and homology models showed potential in the detection
of the binding site and key residues responsible for ligand recognition. Moreover, virtual
screening through molecular docking discriminates P-glycoprotein ligands from decoys.
We also discuss challenges and limitations of molecular docking simulations applied to
this particular protein. Computational structure-based approaches are very helpful in the
study of novel ligands that interact with the P-glycoprotein and provide insights to understand
the P-glycoprotein molecular mechanism of action.

Abstract
The constantly growing contribution of depressive disorders to the global disease statistics calls for a growth of treatment effectiveness and optimization. Antidepressants are the most frequently prescribed medicines for depressive disorders. However, development of a standardized pharmacotherapeutic approach is burdened by the genomic heterogeneity, lack of reliable predictive biomarkers and variability of the medicines metabolism aggravated by multiple side effects of antidepressants. According to modern assessments up to 20 % of the genes expressed in our brain are involved in the pathogenesis of depression. Large-scale genetic and genomic research has found a number of potentially prognostic genes. It has also been proven that the effectiveness and tolerability of antidepressants directly depend on the variable activity of the enzymes that metabolize medicines. Almost all modern antidepressants are metabolized by the cytochrome P450 family enzymes. The most promising direction of research today is the GWAS (Genome-Wide Association Study) method that is aimed to link genomic variations with phenotypical manifestations. In this type of research genomes of depressive patients with different phenotypes are compared to the genomes of the control group containing same age, sex and other parameters healthy people. Notably, regardless of the large cohorts of patients analyzed, none of the GWA studies conducted so far can reliably reproduce the results of other analogous studies. The explicit heterogeneity of the genes associated with the depression pathogenesis and their pleiotropic effects are strongly influenced by environmental factors. This may explain the difficulty of obtaining clear and reproducible results. However, despite any negative circumstances, the active multidirectional research conducted today, raises the hope of clinicians and their patients to get a whole number of schedules how to achieve remission faster and with guaranteed results

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hyperprolactinemia (HPRL) is a classical side effect of antipsychotic drugs primarily attributed to blockade of dopamine D2 receptors (DRD2s) on the membranes of lactotroph cells within the pituitary gland. Certain antipsychotic drugs, e.g. risperidone, are more likely to induce HPRL because of relative accumulation within the adenohypophysis. Nevertheless, due to competition for pituitary DRD2s by high dopamine levels may limit antipsychotic-induced HPRL. Moreover, the activity of prolactin-producing lactotrophs also depends on other hormones which are regulated by the extra-pituitary activity of dopamine receptors, dopamine transporters, enzymes of neurotransmitter metabolism and other factors. Polymorphic variants in the genes coding for these receptors and proteins can have functional significance and influence on the development of hyperprolactinemia. METHODS A set of 41 SNPs of genes for dopamine receptors DRD1, DRD2, DRD3, DRD4, the dopamine transporter SLC6A3 and dopamine catabolizing enzymes MAOA and MAOB was investigated in a population of 446 Caucasians (221 males/225 females) with a clinical diagnosis of schizophrenia (according to ICD-10: F20) with and without HPRL who were treated with classical and/or atypical antipsychotic drugs. Additive genetic model was tested and the analysis was carried out in the total group and in subgroup stratified by the use of risperidone/paliperidone. RESULTS One statistically significant association between polymorphic variant rs1799836 of MAOB gene and HPRL in men was found in the total group. Furthermore, the rs40184 and rs3863145 variants in SLC6A3 gene appeared to be associated with HPRL in the subgroup of patients using the risperidone/paliperidone, but not with HPRL induced by other antipsychotic drugs. CONCLUSIONS Our results indicate that genetic variants of MAOB and SLC6A3 may have consequences on the modulation of prolactin secretion. A further search for genetic markers associated with the development of antipsychotic-related hyperprolactinemia in schizophrenic patients is needed.

Abstract
Curcumin is a multitherapeutic agent with great therapeutic potential in central nervous system (CNS) diseases. In the current study, curcumin was encapsulated in solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) and nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs) for the purpose of increasing brain accumulation. The preparation processes have been optimized using experimental design and multiobjective optimization methods. Entrapment efficiency of curcumin in SLNs and NLCs was found to be 82% ± 0.49 and 94% ± 0.74, respectively. The pharmacokinetic studies showed that the amount of curcumin available in the brain was significantly higher in curcumin-loaded NLCs (AUC0-t = 505.76 ng/g h) compared to free curcumin (AUC0-t = 0.00 ng/g h) and curcumin-loaded SLNs (AUC0-t = 116.31 ng/g h) ( P < 0.005), after intravenous (IV) administration of 4 mg/kg dose of curcumin in rat. The results of differential scanning calorimetry and X-ray diffraction showed that curcumin has been dispersed as amorphous in the nanocarriers. Scanning electron microscopy images confirmed the nanoscale size and spherical shape of the nanoparticles. The DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) free radical scavenging study indicated that preparation processes do not have any significant effect on the antioxidant activity of curcumin. The results of this study are promising for the use of curcumin-loaded NLCs in more studies and using curcumin in the treatment of CNS diseases.

Abstract
The accrual and analysis of genomic sequencing data have identified specific genetic variants that are associated with major depressive disorder. Moreover, substantial investigations have been devoted to identifying gene-drug interactions that affect the response to antidepressant medications by modulating their pharmacokinetic or pharmacodynamic properties. Despite these advances, individual responses to antidepressants, as well as the unpredictability of adverse side effects, leave clinicians with an imprecise prescribing strategy that often relies on trial and error. These limitations have spawned several combinatorial pharmacogenetic testing products that are marketed to physicians. Typically, combinatorial pharmacogenetic decision support tools use algorithms to integrate multiple genetic variants and assemble the results into an easily interpretable report to guide prescribing of antidepressants and other psychotropic medications. The authors review the evidence base for several combinatorial pharmacogenetic decision support tools whose potential utility has been evaluated in clinical settings. They find that, at present, there are insufficient data to support the widespread use of combinatorial pharmacogenetic testing in clinical practice, although there are clinical situations in which the technology may be informative, particularly in predicting side effects.

ABCB1 and CYP2D6 polymorphisms and treatment response of psychotic patients in a naturalistic setting. Hum Psychopharmacol 2018; 33. [PMID: 29250824 DOI: 10.1002/hup.2644] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/05/2017] [Revised: 08/28/2017] [Accepted: 11/10/2017] [Indexed: 12/25/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of our study was to examine the association between ABCB1 polymorphisms G2677T/A (rs2032582) and C3435T (rs1045642) and common CYP2D6 variants, with the response to antipsychotic treatment of psychotic patients, in a naturalistic setting, in Greece. METHODS One hundred patients suffering from schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders were included in the study. Dosages were normalized to chlorpromazine equivalents. Response following 1 month of treatment was assessed as either a continuous variable, using the distribution of the corrected Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale percent change, or as a dichotomous variable defined as the number of patients scoring ≥30% from the corrected baseline Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale score. Genotyping was achieved with established polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism methods. RESULTS With response treated as a continuous variable, the homozygous recessive rs2032582 genotypes (TT) who were simultaneously carriers of a loss-of-function CYP2D6 allele (*4 or *5) responded significantly worse than the rest of the patients. Comparison of genotype frequencies revealed a statistically significant association of the above combination. No significant association between chlorpromazine equivalents and the tested genotypes was detected. CONCLUSION We have detected a possible interaction between ABCB1 and CYP2D6 in affecting response of psychotic patients to drug treatment, in a naturalistic setting.

The Differential Binding of Antipsychotic Drugs to the ABC Transporter P-Glycoprotein Predicts Cannabinoid-Antipsychotic Drug Interactions. Neuropsychopharmacology 2017; 42:2222-2231.

Abstract
Cannabis use increases rates of psychotic relapse and treatment failure in schizophrenia patients. Clinical studies suggest that cannabis use reduces the efficacy of antipsychotic drugs, but there has been no direct demonstration of this in a controlled study. The present study demonstrates that exposure to the principal phytocannabinoid, Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), reverses the neurobehavioral effects of the antipsychotic drug risperidone in mice. THC exposure did not influence D2 and 5-HT2A receptor binding, the major targets of antipsychotic action, but it lowered the brain concentrations of risperidone and its active metabolite, 9-hydroxy risperidone. As risperidone and its active metabolite are excellent substrates of the ABC transporter P-glycoprotein (P-gp), we hypothesized that THC might increase P-gp expression at the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and thus enhance efflux of risperidone and its metabolite from brain tissue. We confirmed that the brain disposition of risperidone and 9-hydroxy risperidone is strongly influenced by P-gp, as P-gp knockout mice displayed greater brain concentrations of these drugs than wild-type mice. Furthermore, we demonstrated that THC exposure increased P-gp expression in various brain regions important to risperidone's antipsychotic action. We then showed that THC exposure did not influence the neurobehavioral effects of clozapine. Clozapine shares a very similar antipsychotic mode of action to risperidone, but unlike risperidone is not a P-gp substrate. Our results imply that clozapine or non-P-gp substrate antipsychotic drugs may be better first-line treatments for schizophrenia patients with a history of cannabis use.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Resistance to adjuvant radiotherapy is a major cause of treatment failure in patients with glioblastoma (GBM). Autophagy inhibitors have been shown to enhance the efficacy of radiotherapy for certain solid tumors. However, current inhibitors do not penetrate the blood-brain-barrier (BBB). Here, we assessed the radiosensitivity effects of the antipsychotic drug trifluoperazine (TFP) on GBM in vitro and in vivo. METHODS U251 and U87 GBM cell lines as well as GBM cells from a primary human biopsy (P3), were used in vitro and in vivo to evaluate the efficacy of TFP treatment. Viability and cytotoxicity was evaluated by CCK-8 and clonogenic formation assays. Molecular studies using immunohistochemistry, western blots, immunofluorescence and qPCR were used to gain mechanistic insight into the biological activity of TFP. Preclinical therapeutic efficacy was evaluated in orthotopic xenograft mouse models. RESULTS IC50 values of U251, U87 and P3 cells treated with TFP were 16, 15 and 15.5 μM, respectively. TFP increased the expression of LC3B-II and p62, indicating a potential disruption of autophagy flux. These results were further substantiated by a decreased Lysotracker Red uptake, indicating impaired acidification of the lysosomes. We show that TFP and radiation had an additive effect when combined. This effect was in part due to impaired TFP-induced homologous recombination. Mechanistically we show that down-regulation of cathepsin L might explain the radiosensitivity effect of TFP. Finally, combining TFP and radiation resulted in a significant antitumor effect in orthotopic GBM xenograft models. CONCLUSIONS This study provides a strong rationale for further clinical studies exploring the combination therapy of TFP and radiation to treat GBM patients.

Abstract
The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is essential for proper neuronal function, homeostasis, and protection of the central nervous system (CNS) microenvironment from blood-borne pathogens and neurotoxins. The BBB is also an impediment for CNS penetration of drugs. In some neurologic conditions, such as epilepsy and brain tumors, overexpression of P-glycoprotein, an efflux transporter whose physiological function is to expel catabolites and xenobiotics from the CNS into the blood stream, has been reported. Recent studies reported that overexpression of P-glycoprotein and increase in its activity at the BBB drives a progressive resistance to CNS penetration and persistence of riluzole, the only drug approved thus far for treatment of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), rapidly progressive and mostly fatal neurologic disease. This review will discuss the impact of transporter-mediated pharmacoresistance for ALS drug therapy and the potential therapeutic strategies to improve the outcome of ALS clinical trials and efficacy of current and future drug treatments.

Abstract
Membrane transporter proteins (the ABC transporters and SLC transporters) play pivotal roles in drug absorption and disposition, and thus determine their efficacy and safety. Accumulating evidence suggests that the expression and activity of these transporters may be modulated by various phytochemicals (PCs) found in diets rich in plants and herbs. PC absorption and disposition are also subject to the function of membrane transporter and drug metabolizing enzymes. PC-drug interactions may involve multiple major drug transporters (and metabolizing enzymes) in the body, leading to alterations in the pharmacokinetics of substrate drugs, and thus their efficacy and toxicity. This review summarizes the reported in vitro and in vivo interactions between common dietary PCs and the major drug transporters. The oral absorption, distribution into pharmacological sanctuaries and excretion of substrate drugs and PCs are considered, along with their possible interactions with the ABC and SLC transporters which influence these processes.

Abstract
P-glycoprotein (P-gp), the gene product of ABCB1, is a drug transporter at the blood–brain barrier and could be a limiting factor for entrance of antidepressants into the brain, the target site of antidepressant action. Animal studies showed that brain concentrations of many antidepressants depend on P-gp. In humans, ABCB1 genotyping in the treatment of depression rests on the assumption that genetic variations in ABCB1 explain individual differences in antidepressant response via their effects on P-gp expression at the blood–brain barrier. High P-gp expression is hypothesized to lead to lower and often insufficient brain concentrations of P-gp substrate antidepressants. In this review, we summarize 32 studies investigating the question of whether ABCB1 polymorphisms predict clinical efficacy and/or tolerability of antidepressants in humans and evaluate the clinical application status of ABCB1 genotyping in depression treatment.

Abstract
The efflux pump, p-glycoprotein, controls bioavailability and excretion of pharmaceutical compounds. In the blood-brain barrier, p-glycoprotein regulates the delivery of pharmaceutical substances to the brain, influencing efficacy and side effects for some drugs notably antipsychotics. Common side effects to antipsychotics include obesity and metabolic disease. Polymorphisms in the ABCB1 gene coding for p-glycoprotein are associated with more severe side effects to neuro-pharmaceuticals as well as weight gain, indicating a potential link between p-glycoprotein function and metabolic regulation. Using microarray data analysis from 145 neurologically sound adults, this study investigated the association between body mass index (BMI) and ABCB1 expression in the frontal cortex. Increasing BMI values were associated with a statistically significantly reduced expression of ABCB1. Investigation of DNA methylation patterns in a subgroup of 52 individuals found that the methylation/expression ratios of ABCB1 were unaffected by increasing BMI values. Interestingly, the effect of BMI on ABCB1 expression appeared stronger in African Americans than in Caucasians.

Abstract
Oral delivery is the most accepted and economical route for drug administration and leads to substantial reduction in dosing frequency. However, this route still remains a challenge for the pharmaceutical industry due to poorly soluble and permeable drugs leading to poor oral bioavailability. Incorporating bioactives into nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs) has helped in boosting their therapeutic functionality and prolonged release from these carrier systems thus providing improved pharmacokinetic parameters. The present review provides an overview of noteworthy studies reporting impending benefits of NLCs in oral delivery and highlights recent advancements for developing engineered NLCs either by conjugating polymers over their surface or modifying their charge to overcome the mucosal barrier of GI tract for active transport across intestinal membrane. Lay abstract: Oral administration of drugs is considered to be a convenient route; however, various drugs that are insoluble in water or unable to permeate across GI tract membrane cannot be delivered by this route. To deliver them effectively, various lipid carriers have been widely explored by researchers. Lipid carriers encapsulate drug inside them and deliver them effectively via the oral route. Also, encapsulation of drug protects them from degradation inside GI tract and safely delivers them to the site of action. This review summarizes application of lipid carriers, in other words, nanostructured lipid carriers, in eradicating these problems, with suitable examples.

Abstract
ATP-binding cassette transporter B1 (ABCB1; P-glycoprotein; multidrug resistance protein 1) is an adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-dependent efflux transporter located in the plasma membrane of many different cell types. Numerous structurally unrelated compounds, including drugs and environmental toxins, have been identified as substrates. ABCB1 limits the absorption of xenobiotics from the gut lumen, protects sensitive tissues (e.g. the brain, fetus and testes) from xenobiotics and is involved in biliary and renal secretion of its substrates. In recent years, a large number of polymorphisms of the ABCB1 [ATP-binding cassette, sub-family B (MDR/TAP), member 1] gene have been described. The variants 1236C>T (rs1128503, p.G412G), 2677G>T/A (rs2032582, p.A893S/T) and 3435C>T (rs1045642, p.I1145I) occur at high allele frequencies and create a common haplotype; therefore, they have been most widely studied. This review provides an overview of clinical studies published between 2002 and March 2015. In summary, the effect of ABCB1 variation on P-glycoprotein expression (messenger RNA and protein expression) and/or activity in various tissues (e.g. the liver, gut and heart) appears to be small. Although polymorphisms and haplotypes of ABCB1 have been associated with alterations in drug disposition and drug response, including adverse events with various ABCB1 substrates in different ethnic populations, the results have been majorly conflicting, with limited clinical relevance. Future research activities are warranted, considering a deep-sequencing approach, as well as well-designed clinical studies with appropriate sample sizes to elucidate the impact of rare ABCB1 variants and their potential consequences for effect sizes.

Abstract
This study prepared three liposomal formulations coloaded with elacridar and tariquidar to overcome the P-glycoprotein-mediated efflux at the blood-brain barrier. Their pharmacokinetics, brain distribution, and impact on the model P-glycoprotein substrate, loperamide, were compared to those for the coadministration of free elacridar plus free tariquidar. After intravenous administration in rats, elacridar and tariquidar in conventional liposomes were rapidly cleared from the bloodstream. Their low levels in the brain did not improve the loperamide brain distribution. Although elacridar and tariquidar in PEGylated liposomes exhibited 2.6 and 1.9 longer half-lives than free elacridar and free tariquidar, respectively, neither their Kp for the brain nor the loperamide brain distribution was improved. However, the conjugation of OX26 F(ab')2 fragments to PEGylated liposomes increased the Kps for the brain of elacridar and tariquidar by 1.4- and 2.1-fold, respectively, in comparison to both free P-gp modulators. Consequently, the Kp for the brain of loperamide increased by 2.7-fold. Moreover, the plasma pharmacokinetic parameters and liver distribution of loperamide were not modified by the PEGylated OX26 F(ab')2 immunoliposomes. Thus, this formulation represents a promising tool for modulating the P-glycoprotein-mediated efflux at the blood-brain barrier and could improve the brain uptake of any P-glycoprotein substrate that is intended to treat central nervous system diseases.

Abstract
Objective Major depressive disorder (MDD) is projected to be a leading cause of disability globally by 2030. Only a minority of patients remit with antidepressants. If assay of polymorphisms influencing central nervous system (CNS) bioavailability could guide prescribers to more effectively dose patients, remission rates may improve and the burden of disease from MDD reduce. Hepatic and blood brain barrier (BBB) polymorphisms appear to influence antidepressant CNS bioavailability. Methods A 12-week prospective double blind randomized genetically guided versus unguided trial of antidepressant dosing in Caucasian adults with MDD (n=148) was conducted. Results Subjects receiving genetically guided prescribing had a 2.52-fold greater chance of remission (95% confidence interval [CI]=1.71–3.73, z=4.66, p<0.0001). The number needed to genotype (NNG)=3 (95% CI=1.7–3.5) to produce an additional remission. Conclusion These data suggest that a pharmacogenetic dosing report (CNSDose®) improves antidepressant efficacy. The effect size was sufficient that translation to clinical care may arise if results are independently replicated.

Abstract
Each year, about 5-6 cases out of 100,000 people are diagnosed with primary malignant brain tumors, of which about 80% are malignant gliomas (MGs). Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) accounts for more than half of MG cases. They are associated with high morbidity and mortality. Despite current multimodality treatment efforts including maximal surgical resection if feasible, followed by a combination of radiotherapy and/or chemotherapy, the median survival is short: only about 15months. A deeper understanding of the pathogenesis of these tumors has presented opportunities for newer therapies to evolve and an expectation of better control of this disease. Lately, efforts have been made to investigate tumor resistance, which results from complex alternate signaling pathways, the existence of glioma stem-cells, the influence of the blood-brain barrier as well as the expression of 0(6)-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase. In this paper, we review up-to-date information on MGs treatment including current approaches, novel drug-delivering strategies, molecular targeted agents and immunomodulative treatments, and discuss future treatment perspectives.

A systematic microdialysis study of dopamine transmission in the accumbens shell/core and prefrontal cortex after acute antipsychotics. Psychopharmacology (Berl) 2015; 232:1427-40. [PMID: 25345736 DOI: 10.1007/s00213-014-3780-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 26] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/28/2014] [Accepted: 10/10/2014] [Indexed: 01/16/2023]
Abstract
RATIONALE The only systematic in vivo studies comparing antipsychotic (AP) effects on nucleus accumbens (NAc) shell and core dopamine (DA) transmission are voltammetric studies performed in pargyline-pretreated, halothane-anaesthetized rats. Studies in freely moving rats not pretreated with pargyline are not available. This study was intended to fill this gap by the use of in vivo microdialysis in freely moving rats. METHODS Male Sprague-Dawley rats were implanted with microdialysis probes in the NAc shell and core and medial prefrontal cortex (PFCX). The next day, rats were administered intravenously with two or three doses of APs, and dialysate DA was monitored in 10-min samples. Some rats were pretreated with pargyline (75 mg/kg i.p.) and after 1 h were given clozapine or risperidone. RESULTS Clozapine, risperidone, quetiapine, raclopride, sulpiride and amisulpride increased DA preferentially in the NAc shell. Such preferential effect on shell DA was not observed after haloperidol, chlorpromazine and olanzapine. In contrast to voltammetric studies, a preferential effect on NAc core DA was not observed after any dose of AP. Pargyline pretreatment did not reduce but actually amplified the preferential effect of clozapine and risperidone on NAc shell DA. CONCLUSIONS Apart from raclopride and olanzapine, the APs with lower extrapyramidal effects could be distinguished from typical APs on the basis of their ability to preferentially stimulate DA transmission in the NAc shell. There was no relationship between stimulation of PFCX DA and atypical APs profile. The differences between this study and voltammetry studies were not attributable to pargyline pretreatment.

How the Probability and Potential Clinical Significance of Pharmacokinetically Mediated Drug-Drug Interactions Are Assessed in Drug Development: Desvenlafaxine as an Example. Prim Care Companion CNS Disord 2015; 17:14r01710. [PMID: 26445693 DOI: 10.4088/pcc.14r01710] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/13/2014] [Accepted: 10/29/2014] [Indexed: 01/08/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The avoidance of adverse drug-drug interactions (DDIs) is a high priority in terms of both the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the individual prescriber. With this perspective in mind, this article illustrates the process for assessing the risk of a drug (example here being desvenlafaxine) causing or being the victim of DDIs, in accordance with FDA guidance. DATA SOURCES/STUDY SELECTION DDI studies for the serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor desvenlafaxine conducted by the sponsor and published since 2009 are used as examples of the systematic way that the FDA requires drug developers to assess whether their new drug is either capable of causing clinically meaningful DDIs or being the victim of such DDIs. In total, 8 open-label studies tested the effects of steady-state treatment with desvenlafaxine (50-400 mg/d) on the pharmacokinetics of cytochrome (CYP) 2D6 and/or CYP 3A4 substrate drugs, or the effect of CYP 3A4 inhibition on desvenlafaxine pharmacokinetics. The potential for DDIs mediated by the P-glycoprotein (P-gp) transporter was assessed in in vitro studies using Caco-2 monolayers. DATA EXTRACTION Changes in area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC; CYP studies) and efflux (P-gp studies) were reviewed for potential DDIs in accordance with FDA criteria. RESULTS Desvenlafaxine coadministration had minimal effect on CYP 2D6 and/or 3A4 substrates per FDA criteria. Changes in AUC indicated either no interaction (90% confidence intervals for the ratio of AUC geometric least-squares means [GM] within 80%-125%) or weak inhibition (AUC GM ratio 125% to < 200%). Coadministration with ketoconazole resulted in a weak interaction with desvenlafaxine (AUC GM ratio of 143%). Desvenlafaxine was not a substrate (efflux ratio < 2) or inhibitor (50% inhibitory drug concentration values > 250 μM) of P-gp. CONCLUSIONS A 2-step process based on FDA guidance can be used first to determine whether a pharmacokinetically mediated interaction occurs and then to assess the potential clinical significance of the DDI. In the case of the drug tested in this series of studies, the potential for clinically meaningful DDIs mediated by CYP 2D6, CYP 3A4, or P-gp was found to be low.

Abstract
The World Health Organisation recommends exclusive breastfeeding for the first six months of an infant’s life and in combination with solid food thereafter. This recommendation was introduced based on research showing numerous health benefits of breastfeeding for both the mother and the infant. However, there is always concern regarding the transfer of medications from mother to their breastfed baby via milk. Pharmacokinetic properties of a drug are usually used to predict its transferability into breast milk. Although most drugs are compatible with breastfeeding, cases of toxic drug exposure have been reported. This is thought to be due to active transport mechanisms whereby efflux transporter proteins expressed in the epithelial cells of the mammary gland actively secrete drugs into milk. An example of such efflux transporters including the breast cancer resistance protein which is strongly induced during lactation and this could result in contamination of milk with the substrates of this transporter which may place the suckling infant at risk of toxicity. Furthermore, there is little known about the substrate specificity of most efflux transporters as we have highlighted in this review. There also exists some degree of contradiction between in vivo and in vitro studies which makes it difficult to conclusively predict outcomes and drug-drug interactions.
