Research Abstract |
1. Research on antidepressants in pharmacokinetic drug interactions We have investigated the role of lung in pharmacokinetic drug interactions between tricyclic antidepressants and SSRIs using [ィイD111ィエD1C] cyanoimipramine. A large proportion of the injected [ィイD111ィエD1C] cyanoimipramine (70-80%) was accumulated in the lung. Fifty mg of clomipramine, antidepressant with high affinity for the serotonin transporter, decreased the lung uptake of [ィイD111ィエD1C] cyanoimipramine in approximately 40%. Whole-brain uptake was low in control state but increased significantly after clomipramine administration. The lungs may function as a reservoir for antidepressants with high affinity to the serotonin transporter. The accumulated antidepressants may be displaced by other antidepressants, and this displacement would substantially increase plasma concentrations and thus cause toxic effects. 2. Measurement of serotonin transporter occupancy with antidepressants We demonstrated the occupancy of serotoni

n transporters using [ィイD111ィエD1C] McN5652-X. We measured the changes of the specific binding in thalamus using the cerebellum as a non-specific binding site. Approximately 50-70% of serotonin transporter were occupied by clinical dose of clomipramine. Using inactive stereoisomer [ィイD111ィエD1C] (-) McN5652, non-specific binding was reevaluated and it was larger than previous evaluation. Calculated occupancy using [ィイD111ィエD1C] (-) McN5652 as non specific binding was 90 % by 50 mg of clomipramine and 95%, 75% of occupancy was calculated after administration of 50 mg, 25 mg fluboxamine 3. Development of a new method to measure the endogenous serotonin The bindings of endogenous serotonin were analyzed by using a 5-HT1A receptor agonist, [ィイD111ィエD1C] WAY100635 after administration of fenflramin or reserpine. Endogenous serotonin had no significant effect on [ィイD111ィエD1C] IWAY100635 binding in vivo. 4. Serotonin transporters in mood disorders The binding potentials of [ィイD111ィエD1C] McN5652-X were 0.89±0.17 (mean±S.D.) in thalamus, 0.93±0.26 in left basal ganglia and 0.87±0.18 in right basal ganglia in patients with mood disorders. In the control group, the binding potentials were 0.77±0.24 in thalamus, 0.88±0.37 in left basal ganglia and 0.92±0.30 in right basal ganglia. There was no significant difference of binding potentials between patients and controls. However, there was a positive correlation between the binding potentials of right basal ganglia and Hamilton depression scores (F=7.90, P=0.20). Less
