Journal Article
Triazolam biotransformation by human liver microsomes in vitro: effects of metabolic inhibitors and clinical confirmation of a predicted interaction with ketoconazole.
L L von Moltke,David J. Greenblatt,Jerold S. Harmatz,Su Xiang Duan,L. Harrel,M. M. Cotreau-Bibbo,Gary A. Pritchard,C. E. Wright,Richard I. Shader +8 more
TL;DR: An in vitro-in vivo scaling model predicted a decrement of triazolam clearance due to ketoconazole coadministration that was consistent with the 88% decrement in clearance actually observed in vivo.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pregnenolone sulfate potentiation of NMDA-mediated increases in intracellular calcium in cultured chick cortical neurons
TL;DR: Data confirm that PS is a positive allosteric modulator of the NMDA receptor and provide evidence that this neurosteroid does not interact with the polyamine modulatory site.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prenatal cocaine exposure: Decreased sensitization to cocaine and decreased striatal dopamine transporter binding in offspring
TL;DR: Pregnant mice were treated with cocaine during days 13 to 20 of gestation and cocaine sensitization and dopamine transporter binding were evaluated in offspring at 6 weeks of age, where sensitization was reduced and transporter binding was significantly reduced.
Journal Article
Effects of ketoconazole on triazolam pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and benzodiazepine receptor binding in mice.
Jeanne M. Fahey,Gary A. Pritchard,Lisa L. von Moltke,John Pratt,Jeffrey M. Grassi,Richard I. Shader,David J. Greenblatt +6 more
TL;DR: It is likely that ketoconazole acts as a neutral ligand at the benzodiazepine receptor in vitro as well as on open-field behavior in male CD-1 mice, and significantly potentiated the decreased activity seen with triazolam administration.
Journal ArticleDOI
The nmda receptor competitive antagonist cpp modulates benzodiazepine tolerance and discontinuation
TL;DR: Data support the involvement of the glutamatergic system in benzodiazepine tolerance and discontinuation and support the role of the NMDA antagonist CPP in this syndrome.
