  • Synthetic Drugs: Overview and Issues for Congress
    Synthetic Drugs: Overview and Issues for Congress Lisa N. Sacco Analyst in Illicit Drugs and Crime Policy Kristin Finklea Specialist in Domestic Security May 3, 2016 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov R42066 Synthetic Drugs: Overview and Issues for Congress Summary Synthetic drugs, as opposed to natural drugs, are chemically produced in a laboratory. Their chemical structure can be either identical to or different from naturally occurring drugs, and their effects are designed to mimic or even enhance those of natural drugs. When produced clandestinely, they are not typically controlled pharmaceutical substances intended for legitimate medical use. Designer drugs are a form of synthetic drugs. They contain slightly modified molecular structures of illegal or controlled substances, and they are modified in order to circumvent existing drug laws. While the issue of synthetic drugs and their abuse is not new, Congress has demonstrated a renewed concern with the issue. From 2009 to 2011, synthetic drug abuse was reported to have dramatically increased. During this time period, calls to poison control centers for incidents relating to harmful effects of synthetic cannabinoids (such as “K2” and “Spice”) and stimulants (such as “bath salts”) increased at what some considered to be an alarming rate. The number of hospital emergency department visits involving synthetic cannabinoids more than doubled from 2010 to 2011. In 2012 and 2013, however, the number of calls to poison control centers for incidents relating to harmful effects of synthetic cannabinoids and synthetic stimulants decreased. Calls regarding bath salts have declined each year since 2011, while calls regarding synthetic cannabinoids have increased since the drops in 2012 and 2013.

Gamma-hydroxybutyrate (GHB) and its precursors, gamma-butyrolactone (GBL) and 1,4-butanediol (1,4-BD), are drugs of abuse which act primarily as central nervous system (CNS) depressants. In recent years, the rising recreational use of these drugs has led to an increasing burden upon health care providers. Understanding their toxicity is therefore essential for the successful management of intoxicated patients. We review the epidemiology, mechanisms of toxicity, toxicokinetics, clinical features, diagnosis, and management of poisoning due to GHB and its analogs and discuss the features and management of GHB withdrawal. Methods. OVID MEDLINE and ISI Web of Science databases were searched using the terms “ GHB, ” “ gamma-hydroxybutyrate, ” “ gamma-hydroxybutyric acid, ” “ 4-hydroxybutanoic acid, ” “ sodium oxybate, ” “ gamma-butyrolactone, ” “ GBL, ” “ 1,4-butanediol, ” and “ 1,4-BD ” alone and in combination with the keywords “ pharmacokinetics, ” “ kinetics, ” “ poisoning, ” “ poison, ” “ toxicity, ” “ ingestion, ” “ adverse effects, ” “ overdose, ” and “ intoxication.

Diagonal Method to Measure Synergy Among Any Number of Drugs. J. Vis. Exp. (136), e57713, doi:10.3791/57713 (2018). Abstract A synergistic drug combination has a higher efficacy compared to the effects of individual drugs. Checkerboard assays, where drugs are combined in many doses, allow sensitive measurement of drug interactions. However, these assays are costly and do not scale well for measuring interaction among many drugs. Several recent studies have reported drug interaction measurements using a diagonal sampling of the traditional checkerboard assay. This alternative methodology greatly decreases the cost of drug interaction experiments and allows interaction measurement for combinations with many drugs. Here, we describe a protocol to measure the three pairwise interactions and one three-way interaction among three antibiotics in duplicate, in five days, using only three 96-well microplates and standard laboratory equipment. We present representative results showing that the three-antibiotic combination of Levofloxacin + Nalidixic Acid + Penicillin G is synergistic.

  • Drug Combinations: Mathematical Modeling and Networking Methods
    pharmaceutics Review Drug Combinations: Mathematical Modeling and Networking Methods Vahideh Vakil † and Wade Trappe *,† Wireless Information Network Laboratory (WINLAB), Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, New Brunswick, NJ 08901, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +1-848-932-0909 † Current address: Technology Centre of New Jersey, 671 Route 1 South, North Brunswick, NJ 08902-3390, USA. Received: 12 February 2019; Accepted: 27 April 2019; Published: 2 May 2019 Abstract: Treatments consisting of mixtures of pharmacological agents have been shown to have superior effects to treatments involving single compounds. Given the vast amount of possible combinations involving multiple drugs and the restrictions in time and resources required to test all such combinations in vitro, mathematical methods are essential to model the interactive behavior of the drug mixture and the target, ultimately allowing one to better predict the outcome of the combination. In this review, we investigate various mathematical methods that model combination therapies. This survey includes the methods that focus on predicting the outcome of drug combinations with respect to synergism and antagonism, as well as the methods that explore the dynamics of combination therapy and its role in combating drug resistance. This comprehensive investigation of the mathematical methods includes models that employ pharmacodynamics equations, those that rely on signaling and how the underlying chemical networks are affected by the topological structure of the target proteins, and models that are based on stochastic models for evolutionary dynamics. Additionally, this article reviews computational methods including mathematical algorithms, machine learning, and search algorithms that can identify promising combinations of drug compounds.

Previous studies that have attempted to determine the prevalence of drugs in sexual assault complainants have had serious biases. This research was designed to better estimate the rate of DFSA and to examine the social aspects surrounding it. Four clinics were provided with sexual assault kits and asked to enroll sexual assault complainants.

To address this, we performed a phenotypically-driven screen to identify optimal multidrug combinations acting with high efficacy and selectivity in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). The search was performed using the Therapeutically Guided Multidrug Optimization (TGMO) method in ccRCC cells (786-O) and nonmalignant renal cells and identified a synergistic low-dose four-drug combination (C2) with high efficacy and negligible toxicity.

However, its experimental prediction is unfeasible due to the many possible drug combi- nations, leaving in silico tools as the most promising way of addressing this problem. This thesis improves the performance and robustness of a state-of- the-art graph convolutional network designed to predict polypharmacy side effects, by feeding it with complexity properties of the drug-protein network.
