Outline of Final Research Achievements |
P-glycoprotein (P-gp) influences the distribution of drugs across the blood-brain barrier, and is capable of transporting antipsychotic drugs such as aripiprazole and risperidone. Clozapine, which is used clinically for treatment-resistant schizophrenia, is not a P-gp substrate. C57BL/6 mice were orally administered aripiprazole, blonanserin, or clozapine at 10 mg/kg once daily for 6 weeks, and P-gp mRNA (Abcb1a/Abcb1b) and protein (Abcb1a/Abcb1b) expression levels were measured. This is the first report that chronic aripiprazole treatment increases P-gp mRNA and protein expression in animals, which is associated with the inhibition of digoxin excretion from the brain. These results suggest that increased P-gp expression induced by aripiprazole is mediated by its interaction with P-gp.
