SCHUSTER, Ph.D. Director, NIDA Parklawn Building, 5600 Fishers Lane, Rockville, Maryland 20857 ii FOREWORD This volume contains the scientific papers presented at the 51st Annual Meeting of The Committee on Problems of Drug Dependence. The meeting was held in Keystone, Colorado in June 1989. The National Institute on Drug Abuse is pleased to make these exceptional contributions to the study of drug dependence available to the public as it has for papers presented at other meetings of the CPDD. Once again, the topics cover a wide range of research interests, from the anatomy of brain cells to the prevention and treatment of drug dependency. Of particular interest at this CPDD meeting, though not presented in this volume, was the discussion of the formation of a new research division within NIDA for medications development. There is considerable excitement about the concept of developing new medications for the treatment of addictive disorders, as well as brain and behavior dysfunction. The programs funded by NIDA through this new division will stimulate new research in the neurosciences and pharmacology by members of the CPDD and other scientists. I look forward to the volumes of proceedings of coming CPDD meetings, in which we can expect to see the research papers that will result from NIDA’s new medications development program--another example of the joint concern NIDA and CPDD in unraveling the intricacies of drug dependency.

Prisinzano Date approved: July 18, 2012 ii ABSTRACT Kappa opioid (KOP) receptors have been suggested as an alternative target to the mu opioid (MOP) receptor for the treatment of pain because KOP activation is associated with fewer negative side-effects (respiratory depression, constipation, tolerance, and dependence). The KOP receptor has also been implicated in several abuse-related effects in the central nervous system (CNS). KOP ligands have been investigated as pharmacotherapies for drug abuse; KOP agonists have been shown to modulate dopamine concentrations in the CNS as well as attenuate the self-administration of cocaine in a variety of species, and KOP antagonists have potential in the treatment of relapse. One drawback of current opioid ligand investigation is that many compounds are based on the morphine scaffold and thus have similar properties, both positive and negative, to the parent molecule. Thus there is increasing need to discover new chemical scaffolds with opioid receptor activity.

  • Design and Synthesis of Cyclic Analogs of the Kappa Opioid Receptor Antagonist Arodyn
    Design and synthesis of cyclic analogs of the kappa opioid receptor antagonist arodyn By © 2018 Solomon Aguta Gisemba Submitted to the graduate degree program in Medicinal Chemistry and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Chair: Dr. Blake Peterson Co-Chair: Dr. Jane Aldrich Dr. Michael Rafferty Dr. Teruna Siahaan Dr. Thomas Tolbert Date Defended: 18 April 2018 The dissertation committee for Solomon Aguta Gisemba certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: Design and synthesis of cyclic analogs of the kappa opioid receptor antagonist arodyn Chair: Dr. Blake Peterson Co-Chair: Dr. Jane Aldrich Date Approved: 10 June 2018 ii Abstract Opioid receptors are important therapeutic targets for mood disorders and pain. Kappa opioid receptor (KOR) antagonists have recently shown potential for treating drug addiction and 1,2,3 4 8 depression. Arodyn (Ac[Phe ,Arg ,D-Ala ]Dyn A(1-11)-NH2), an acetylated dynorphin A (Dyn A) analog, has demonstrated potent and selective KOR antagonism, but can be rapidly metabolized by proteases. Cyclization of arodyn could enhance metabolic stability and potentially stabilize the bioactive conformation to give potent and selective analogs. Accordingly, novel cyclization strategies utilizing ring closing metathesis (RCM) were pursued. However, side reactions involving olefin isomerization of O-allyl groups limited the scope of the RCM reactions, and their use to explore structure-activity relationships of aromatic residues. Here we developed synthetic methodology in a model dipeptide study to facilitate RCM involving Tyr(All) residues. Optimized conditions that included microwave heating and the use of isomerization suppressants were applied to the synthesis of cyclic arodyn analogs.

The central hypothesis to be tested is that the time-and drug-dependent KOR-mediated regulation of ERK1/2 MAP kinase activity occurs via distinct molecular mechanisms, which in turn may determine the modulation (suppression or potentiation) by KOR effects on cocaine conditioned place preference (CPP). Three studies were performed to test this hypothesis. Study 1 examined the effects of U50,488 and salvinorin A on cocaine reward. In these studies, mice were treated with equianalgesic doses of agonist from 15 to 360 min prior to daily saline or cocaine place conditioning. At time points corresponding with peak biological activity, both agonists produced saline-conditioned place aversion and suppressed cocaine-CPP, effects blocked by the KOR antagonist nor-BNI. However, when mice were place conditioned with cocaine 90 min after agonist pretreatment, U50,488-pretreated mice demonstrated a 2.5-fold potentiation of cocaine-CPP, whereas salvinorin A-pretreated mice demonstrated normal cocaine-CPP responses.

DRUG USE SEQUENCING AND KANDEL'S GATEWAY HYPOTHESIS A Thesis Presented to the Graduate School of Clemson University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science Applied Sociology by John Matthew Reid August 2008 Accepted by: Dr. Brenda Vander Mey, Committee Chair Dr. Douglas Kinly Sturkie Dr. Margaret Tina Britz i ABSTRACT This thesis tests the hypothesis by Kandel (1975) that there is a specific sequence of drug use that users follow. Using the same scalogram analysis technique utilized by Kandel in her original Gateway Hypothesis study, a distinct sequence of use was discovered. This thesis is based on the National Survey on Drug Use and Health (2005). This study confirmed Kandel’s earlier findings in that this study determined that there is a sequence of drug use. The current study also confirms Kandel’s position that licit drugs precede the use of illicit drugs. This study’s findings differ from those of Kandel, however, in that tobacco and not alcohol was found to be the first drug of experimentation.
