The effects of venlafaxine on the subjective, reinforcing, and cardiovascular effects of cocaine in opioid-dependent and non-opioid-dependent humans.

The effects of maintenance on venlafaxine, which blocks both norepinephrine and serotonin reuptake, on the response to smoked cocaine (0, 12, 25, or 50 mg) in 7 opioid-free and 7 methadone-maintained cocaine abusers was examined during a 42-day study. Participants received venlafaxine (225 mg daily) and placebo as part of a double-blind crossover design. Cocaine significantly increased heart rate, blood pressure, cocaine choice, cocaine ratings, and ratings of positive subjective effects (e.g., "I feel high") in both groups. Venlafaxine significantly decreased the subjective effects of cocaine by 10-20% without affecting cocaine choice or cardiovascular response in both groups. Although the reduction in cocaine's effects was small, further studies using a longer venlafaxine maintenance period or a larger venlafaxine dose are warranted.

Combined effects of venlafaxine, nicotine replacement, and brief counseling on smoking cessation.

In this study, 147 smokers were randomly assigned to receive either venlafaxine or placebo in conjunction with behavioral counseling (9 weekly sessions) and transdermal nicotine replacement therapy (22 mg/day). Patients began medication 2 weeks before quitting and continued for 18 weeks after quitting, with the daily dose titrated from 150 to 225 mg. in response to symptoms of negative affect and relapse. The results showed no main effect of treatment on abstinence. Post hoc analysis revealed that both at the end of treatment and at the 1-year follow-up smokers consuming less than a pack of cigarettes a day benefited from the addition of venlafaxine to the treatment regimen. Venlafaxine also reduced negative affect for all smokers for up to 6 weeks postcessation. The findings suggest that venlafaxine could have some role to play in the treatment of lighter smokers, in addition to the expected benefits of nicotine replacement therapy and behavioral counseling.

Quantal-like current fluctuations induced by odorants in olfactory receptor cells.

Many sensory systems have evolved signal detection capabilities that are limited only by the physical attributes of the stimulus. For example, 'hair' cells of the inner ear can detect displacements of atomic dimensions. Likewise, both in vertebrates and in invertebrates photoreceptors can detect a single photon. The olfactory stimulus also has a quantal unit, the single odorant molecule. Insects are reportedly able to detect a single pheromone molecule, whereas quantal responses in vertebrate olfactory receptor cells have not been reported yet. Psychophysical measurements indicate that a minimum of 50 odorant molecules are necessary for human olfactory detection, suggesting that an individual receptor may be activated by a single odorant molecule. We report here measurements of current fluctuations induced by odorants that suggest a quantal event of about 0.3-1 pA, presumably triggered by the binding of a single odorant molecule.

Inhibition by anandamide of gap junctions and intercellular calcium signalling in striatal astrocytes.

Anandamide, an endogenous arachidonic acid derivative that is released from neurons and activates cannabinoid receptors, may act as a transcellular cannabimimetic messenger in the central nervous system. The biological actions of anandamide and the identity of its target cells are, however, still poorly documented. Here we show that anandamide is a potent inhibitor of gap-junction conductance and dye permeability in striatal astrocytes. This inhibitory effect is specific for anandamide as compared to co-released congeners or structural analogues, is sensitive to pertussis toxin and to protein-alkylating agents, and is neither mimicked by cannabinoid-receptor agonists nor prevented by a cannabinoid-receptor antagonist. Glutamate released from neurons evokes calcium waves in astrocytes that propagate via gap junctions, and may, in turn, activate neurons distant from their initiation sites in astrocytes. We find that anandamide blocks the propagation of astrocyte calcium waves generated by either mechanical stimulation or local glutamate application. Thus, by regulating gap-junction permeability, anandamide may control intercellular communication in astrocytes and therefore neuron-glial interactions.

Effect of food on the bioavailability of cyclandelate from commercial capsules.

The bioavailability of five capsules of cyclandelate that are commercially available in Japan was determined in ten healthy volunteers by measuring mandelic acid (a main metabolite of cyclandelate) excreted in the urine. Bioinequivalence among the five capsules was demonstrated. The relative cumulative excretion of mandelic acid of the most poorly bioavailable capsule was 38% of the most highly bioavailable capsule. The effect of food on the bioavailability of these two capsules was investigated by use of two different kinds of food, one containing fat and one containing high carbohydrates but very low fat. The bioavailability of the two capsules was increased when subjects consumed both types of food before drug administration, although there was a greater effect on bioavailability with food containing fat. This suggests that the absorption of cyclandelate was incomplete in fasting subjects, even from the capsule with the highest bioavailability. Bioinequivalence between the two capsules remained after postprandial drug administration.

The effect of renal disease on the disposition of venlafaxine.

The pharmacokinetics of venlafaxine and its active metabolite O-desmethylvenlafaxine were studied in subjects with various degrees of renal dysfunction, including subjects requiring maintenance hemodialysis. Venlafaxine was administered as a single 50 mg dose, with blood and urine samples obtained at intervals up to 48 hours after administration for the subjects receiving dialysis or 72 hours for the subjects not receiving dialysis. Six subjects receiving dialysis also completed an intradialysis evaluation to estimate dialysis clearance. Concentrations of venlafaxine and O-desmethylvenlafaxine in plasma, urine, and dialysate fluid were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography. Apparent total clearance of venlafaxine and O-desmethylvenlafaxine were both significantly decreased by approximately 55% in the subjects receiving dialysis, and terminal disposition half-life was significantly prolonged for both compounds. Venlafaxine and O-desmethylvenlafaxine are poorly dialyzable. In conclusion, the disposition of venlafaxine and O-desmethylvenlafaxine is markedly altered in renal disease; therefore dosage adjustment is warranted for patients with creatinine clearance values below 30 ml/min.

Cyclohexanehexol inhibitors of Abeta aggregation prevent and reverse Alzheimer phenotype in a mouse model.

When given orally to a transgenic mouse model of Alzheimer disease, cyclohexanehexol stereoisomers inhibit aggregation of amyloid beta peptide (Abeta) into high-molecular-weight oligomers in the brain and ameliorate several Alzheimer disease-like phenotypes in these mice, including impaired cognition, altered synaptic physiology, cerebral Abeta pathology and accelerated mortality. These therapeutic effects, which occur regardless of whether the compounds are given before or well after the onset of the Alzheimer disease-like phenotype, support the idea that the accumulation of Abeta oligomers has a central role in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer disease.

Cannabinoids reveal importance of spike timing coordination in hippocampal function.

Cannabinoids impair hippocampus-dependent memory in both humans and animals, but the network mechanisms responsible for this effect are unknown. Here we show that the cannabinoids Delta(9)-tetrahydrocannabinol and CP55940 decreased the power of theta, gamma and ripple oscillations in the hippocampus of head-restrained and freely moving rats. These effects were blocked by a CB1 antagonist. The decrease in theta power correlated with memory impairment in a hippocampus-dependent task. By simultaneously recording from large populations of single units, we found that CP55940 severely disrupted the temporal coordination of cell assemblies in short time windows (<100 ms) yet only marginally affected population firing rates of pyramidal cells and interneurons. The decreased power of local field potential oscillations correlated with reduced temporal synchrony but not with firing rate changes. We hypothesize that reduced spike timing coordination and the associated impairment of physiological oscillations are responsible for cannabinoid-induced memory deficits.

Inhibition by cannabinoid receptor agonists of acetylcholine release from the guinea-pig myenteric plexus.

1. The dose-related inhibition of the twitch responses of the myenteric plexus-longitudinal muscle preparation of the guinea-pig small intestine by cannabinoid (CB) agonists, (+)-WIN 55212 and CP 55940 during stimulation at 0.1 Hz with supramaximal voltage was confirmed. These agonists inhibited acetylcholine (ACh) release in the presence of physostigmine (7.7 microM) thus indicating a prejunctional site of action. 2. Inhibition of twitch responses and ACh release by CB agonists was reversed by the CB1-selective cannabinoid receptor antagonist, SR141716A. Dose-response curves to (+)-WIN 55212 and CP 55940 were shifted to the right, with no reduction of maximal response, by pretreatment with SR141716A (31.6-1000 nM), but not its vehicle, Tween 80 (1 microM). However, at very high concentrations (25-400 microM), Tween 80 itself caused a dose-related inhibition of the twitch response which was significantly reduced in the presence of SR141716A (1 microM). The opioid receptor antagonist, naloxone (1 microM) had no significant effect on the inhibition by CP 55940 of the twitch response. 3. (+)-WIN 55212, CP 55940 and Tween 80 (50 microM) had no effect on responses to exogenous ACh, confirming that their actions were prejunctional. SR141716A (1 microM) did not increase the sensitivity of the longitudinal muscle to either ACh or histamine, but inhibited the responses to high doses of ACh. 4. The (-)-enantiomer of WIN 55212, was approximately 300 times less active than the (+) enantiomer in inhibiting the twitch response, had no CB1 antagonist activity against the active isomer and did not inhibit the release of ACh in the presence of physostigmine. 5. The dissociation constant (KD) values for SR 141716A against the inhibitory effect of (+)-WIN 55212 and CP 55940 on the twitch response were 12.07 nM (95% confidence intervals 8.55 and 20.83) and 6.44 nM (95% confidence intervals 4.70 and 10.24), respectively. In experiments in which the release of ACh was inhibited by (+)-WIN 55212, the KD values were 9.21 nM and 10.53 nM at SR141716A concentrations of 31.6 nM and 100 nM, respectively. The KD values for the antagonism by naloxone of the inhibition of the twitch responses and the inhibition of ACh release by normorphine in this preparation were found to be 2.38 +/- 0.69 nM and 2.00 +/- 0.9 nM, respectively. 6. During maximal inhibition of ACh release by (+)-WIN 55212, the addition of normorphine (400 nM) caused a further significant decrease in ACh output. 7. SR141716A alone produced a significant increase in ACh release in both the absence and presence of exogenous cannabinoid drugs, hence we conclude that it has a presynaptic site of action. We also conclude that SR141716A acts either by antagonizing the effect of an endogenous CB1 receptor agonist or by having an inverse agonist effect at these receptors.

Comparison of the effects of sibutramine and other monoamine reuptake inhibitors on food intake in the rat.

1. The effects of the potent 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) and noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor (serotonin-noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor, SNRI), sibutramine, on the cumulative food intake of freely-feeding male Sprague-Dawley rats during an 8 h dark period were investigated and compared to those of the selective 5-HT reuptake inhibitor (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor, SSRI), fluoxetine; the selective noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor, nisoxetine; the 5-HT and noradrenaline reuptake inhibitors, venlafaxine and duloxetine; and the 5-HT releaser and 5-HT reuptake inhibitor, (+)-fenfluramine. 2. Sibutramine (3 and 10 mg kg-1, p.o.) and (+)-fenfluramine (1 and 3 mg kg-1, p.o.) produced a significant, dose-dependent decrease in food intake over the 8 h dark period. These responses became apparent within the first 2 h following drug administration. 3. Fluoxetine (3, 10 and 30 mg kg-1, p.o.), and nisoxetine (3, 10 and 30 mg kg-1, p.o.) had no significant effect on food intake during the 8 h dark period. However, a combination of fluoxetine and nisoxetine (30 mg kg-1, p.o., of each) significantly decreased food intake 2 and 8 h after drug administration. 4. Venlafaxine (100 and 300 mg kg-1, p.o.) and duloxetine (30 mg kg-1, p.o.) also significantly decreased food intake in the 2 and 8 h following drug administration. 5. The results of this study demonstrate that inhibition of 5-HT and noradrenaline reuptake by sibutramine, venlafaxine, duloxetine, or by a combination of fluoxetine and nisoxetine, markedly reduces food intake in freely-feeding rats and suggest that this may be a novel approach for the treatment of obesity.

Blockade of 5-hydroxytryptamine and noradrenaline uptake by venlafaxine: a comparative study with paroxetine and desipramine.

1. Venlafaxine is an antidepressant agent which blocks in vitro the reuptake of both 5-HT and NA. The present in vivo electrophysiological studies were undertaken, in the rat, to compare the effects of venlafaxine on 5-HT and NA reuptake to those of the selective 5-HT reuptake inhibitor paroxetine and the selective NA reuptake inhibitor desipramine. 2. Administered acutely, venlafaxine dose-dependently prolonged the time required for a 50% recovery (RT50) of the firing activity of dorsal hippocampus CA3 pyramidal neurons from the suppression induced by microiontophoretic applications of 5-HT and NA. Venlafaxine and paroxetine increased with a similar potency the RT50 values for 5-HT, while desipramine was more potent than venlafaxine at increasing the RT50 values for NA. Moreover, venlafaxine demonstrated a greater potency at increasing the RT50 values for 5-HT compared to that of NA. 3. A two-day treatment with venlafaxine (delivered s.c. by osmotic minipumps) increased the RT50 values for both 5-HT and NA applications. The RT50 values for 5-HT were significantly increased at a dose of 10 mg kg(-1) day(-1), whereas those for NA were increased at a dose of 20 mg kg(-1) day(-1), consistent with the data obtained following the acute administration of venlafaxine. 4. Taken together, these results indicate that, in vivo, venlafaxine blocks both reuptake processes, with a potency greater for the 5-HT than for the NA reuptake process. This dual action, combined with the differential potency of venlafaxine, might constitute the biological substratum responsible for its apparent unique clinical efficacy in major depression.

The actions of some cannabinoid receptor ligands in the rat isolated mesenteric artery.

1. The actions of a number of cannabinoid receptor ligands were investigated using the myograph-mounted rat isolated mesenteric artery. Anandamide, CP 55,940, HU-210, palmitoylethanolamide and WIN 55,212-2 all caused concentration-dependent relaxations of methoxamine-precontracted vessels which were not affected by removal of the endothelium. 2. Precontracting vessels with 60 mM KCl instead of methoxamine greatly reduced the vasorelaxant effects of anandamide and palmitoylethanolamide. High K+ solution caused a modest decrease in the relaxant potency of CP 55,940 and HU-210, and had no effect on relaxations induced by WIN 55,212-2. 3. Relaxations of methoxamine-induced tone by anandamide, CP 55,940 and HU-210, but not palmitoylethanolamide and WIN 55,212-2, were attenuated by the cannabinoid receptor antagonist, SR 141716A. Relaxation of vessels contracted with 60 mM KCl by CP 55,940 was also sensitive to SR 141716A. 4. Anandamide and CP 55,940 caused small but concentration-dependent contractions in resting vessels in the absence of extracellular calcium. These were not sensitive to SR 141716A. Palmitoylethanolamide and WIN 55,212-2 produced smaller contractions only at higher concentrations. 5. Anandamide and CP 55,940, but not palmitoylethanolamide and WIN 55,212-2, caused concentration-dependent inhibition of the phasic contractions induced by methoxamine in calcium-free conditions, but only anandamide caused inhibition of contractions to caffeine under such conditions. These inhibitory effects were not antagonised by SR 141716A. 6. The present study provides the first detailed investigation of the actions of cannabinoid agonists on vascular smooth muscle. Our results show that these compounds exert both receptor-dependent and -independent effects on agonist-induced calcium mobilization in the rat isolated mesenteric artery.

Comparison of cannabinoid binding sites in guinea-pig forebrain and small intestine.

We have investigated the nature of cannabinoid receptors in guinea-pig small intestine by establishing whether this tissue contains cannabinoid receptors with similar binding properties to those of brain CB1 receptors. The cannabinoids used were the CB1-selective antagonist SR141716A, the CB2-selective antagonist SR144528, the novel cannabinoid receptor ligand, 6'-azidohex-2'-yne-delta8-tetrahydrocannabinol (O-1184), and the agonists CP55940, which binds equally well to CB1 and CB2 receptors, and WIN55212-2, which shows marginal CB2 selectivity. [3H]-CP55940 (1 nM) underwent extensive specific binding both to forebrain membranes (76.3%) and to membranes obtained by sucrose density gradient fractionation of homogenates of myenteric plexus-longitudinal muscle of guinea-pig small intestine (65.2%). Its binding capacity (Bmax) was higher in forebrain (4281 fmol mg(-1)) than in intestinal membranes (2092 fmol mg(-1)). However, the corresponding KD values were not significantly different from each other (2.29 and 1.75 nM respectively). Nor did the Ki values for its displacement by CP55940, WIN55212-2, O-1184, SR141716A and SR144528 from forebrain membranes (0.87, 4.15, 2.85, 5.32 and 371.9 respectively) differ significantly from the corresponding Ki values determined in experiments with intestinal membranes (0.99, 5.03, 3.16, 4.95 and 361.5 nM respectively). The Bmax values of [3H]-CP55940 and [3H]-SR141716A in forebrain membranes did not differ significantly from each other (4281 and 5658 fmol mg(-1)) but were both greater than the Bmax of [3H]-WIN55212-2 (2032 fmol mg(-1)). O-1184 (10 or 100 nM) produced parallel dextral shifts in the log concentration-response curves of WIN55212-2 and CP55940 for inhibition of electrically-evoked contractions of the myenteric plexus-longitudinal muscle preparation, its KD values being 0.20 nM (against WIN55212-2) and 0.89 nM (against CP55940). We conclude that cannabinoid binding sites in guinea-pig small intestine closely resemble CB1 binding sites of guinea-pig brain and that 0-1184 behaves as a cannabinoid receptor antagonist in the guinea-pig myenteric plexus-longitudinal muscle preparation.

Effect of the cannabinoid receptor agonist WIN55212-2 on sympathetic cardiovascular regulation.

1. The aim of the present study was to analyse the cardiovascular actions of the synthetic CB1/CB2 cannabinoid receptor agonist WIN55212-2, and specifically to determine its sites of action on sympathetic cardiovascular regulation. 2. Pithed rabbits in which the sympathetic outflow was continuously stimulated electrically or which received a pressor infusion of noradrenaline were used to study peripheral prejunctional and direct vascular effects, respectively. For studying effects on brain stem cardiovascular regulatory centres, drugs were administered into the cisterna cerebellomedullaris in conscious rabbits. Overall cardiovascular effects of the cannabinoid were studied in conscious rabbits with intravenous drug administration. 3. In pithed rabbits in which the sympathetic outflow was continuously electrically stimulated, intravenous injection of WIN55212-2 (5, 50 and 500 microg kg(-1)) markedly reduced blood pressure, the spillover of noradrenaline into plasma and the plasma noradrenaline concentration, and these effects were antagonized by the CB1 cannabinoid receptor-selective antagonist SR141716A. The hypotensive and the sympathoinhibitory effect of WIN55212-2 was shared by CP55940, another mixed CB1/CB2 cannabinoid receptor agonist, but not by WIN55212-3, the enantiomer of WIN55212-2, which lacks affinity for cannabinoid binding sites. WIN55212-2 had no effect on vascular tone established by infusion of noradrenaline in pithed rabbits. 4. Intracisternal application of WIN55212-2 (0.1, 1 and 10 microg kg(-1)) in conscious rabbits increased blood pressure and the plasma noradrenaline concentration and elicited bradycardia; this latter effect was antagonized by atropine. 5. In conscious animals, intravenous injection of WIN55212-2 (5 and 50 microg kg(-1)) caused bradycardia, slight hypotension, no change in the plasma noradrenaline concentration, and an increase in renal sympathetic nerve firing. The highest dose of WIN55212-2 (500 microg kg(-1)) elicited hypotension and tachycardia, and sympathetic nerve activity and the plasma noradrenaline concentration declined. 6. The results obtained in pithed rabbits indicate that activation of CB1 cannabinoid receptors leads to marked peripheral prejunctional inhibition of noradrenaline release from postganglionic sympathetic axons. Intracisternal application of WIN55212-2 uncovered two effects on brain stem cardiovascular centres: sympathoexcitation and activation of cardiac vagal fibres. The highest dose of systemically administered WIN55212-2 produced central sympathoinhibition; the primary site of this action is not known.

Agonist-inverse agonist characterization at CB1 and CB2 cannabinoid receptors of L759633, L759656, and AM630.

We have tested our prediction that AM630 is a CB2 cannabinoid receptor ligand and also investigated whether L759633 and L759656, are CB2 receptor agonists. Binding assays with membranes from CHO cells stably transfected with human CB1 or CB2 receptors using [3H]-CP55940, confirmed the CB2-selectivity of L759633 and L759656 (CB2/CB1 affinity ratios = 163 and 414 respectively) and showed AM630 to have a Ki at CB2 receptors of 31.2 nM and a CB2/CB1 affinity ratio of 165. In CB2-transfected cells, L759633 and L759656 were potent inhibitors of forskolin-stimulated cyclic AMP production, with EC50 values of 8.1 and 3.1 nM respectively and CB1/CB2 EC50 ratios of > 1000 and > 3000 respectively. AM630 inhibited [35S]-GTPgammaS binding to CB2 receptor membranes (EC50 = 76.6 nM), enhanced forskolin-stimulated cyclic AMP production in CB2-transfected cells (5.2 fold by 1 microM), and antagonized the inhibition of forskolin-stimulated cyclic AMP production in this cell line induced by CP55940. In CB1-transfected cells, forskolin-stimulated cyclic AMP production was significantly inhibited by AM630 (22.6% at 1 microM and 45.9% at 10 microM) and by L759633 at 10 microM (48%) but not 1 microM. L759656 (10 microM) was not inhibitory. AM630 also produced a slight decrease in the mean inhibitory effect of CP55940 on cyclic AMP production which was not statistically significant. We conclude that AM630 is a CB2-selective ligand that behaves as an inverse agonist at CB2 receptors and as a weak partial agonist at CB1 receptors. L759633 and L759656 are both potent CB2-selective agonists.

Structural determinants of the partial agonist-inverse agonist properties of 6'-azidohex-2'-yne-delta8-tetrahydrocannabinol at cannabinoid receptors.

1. We have extended previous investigations of four analogues of Delta8-tetrahydrocannabinol (Delta8-THC): 6'-azidohex-2'-yne-Delta8-THC (O-1184), 6'-azidohex-cis-2'-ene-Delta8-THC (O-1238) and octyl-2'-yne-Delta8-THC (O-584) and its 1-deoxy-analogue (O-1315). 2. O-1184, O-1238 and O-584 displaced [3H]-CP55940 from specific binding sites on Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell membranes expressing CB1 or CB2 cannabinoid receptors, with pKi values of 8.28 to 8.45 (CB1) and 8.03 to 8.13 (CB2). The pKi values of O-1315 were significantly less, 7.63 (CB1) and 7.01 (CB2). 3. All the analogues inhibited forskolin-stimulated cyclic AMP production by CB1-transfected CHO cells (pEC50=9.16 to 9.72). Only O-1238 behaved as a full agonist in this cell line. 4. In mouse vasa deferentia, O-1238 inhibited electrically-evoked contractions (pEC50=10.18 and Emax=70.5%). Corresponding values for O-1184 were 9.08 and 21.1% respectively. At 1 nM, O-1184 produced surmountable antagonism of the cannabinoid receptor agonist, CP55940. However, at 0.1 nM, O-1184 did not attenuate CP55940-induced inhibition of cyclic AMP production by CB1-transfected CHO cells. 5. In CB2-transfected CHO cells, cyclic AMP production was inhibited by CP55940 (pEC50=8.59), enhanced by O-1184 and O-584 (pEC50=8.20 and 6.86 respectively) and not significantly affected by O-1238 or O-1315. 6. At 100 nM, O-1184 and O-1238 produced surmountable antagonism of CP55940 in CB2 cells, decreasing the pEC50 of CP55940 from 8.61 to 7.42 (O-1184) or from 8. 54 to 7.44 (O-1238). 7. These data support the hypothesis that increasing the degree of unsaturation of the aliphatic side-chain of Delta8-THC analogues has little effect on CB1 or CB2 receptor affinity but can reduce CB1 receptor efficacy and reverse the direction of responses elicited at CB2 receptors.
