To accurately assess the mechanism of involvement of the active metabolite norcocaine in the effects of oral cocaine, it is essential to determine the rate and extent of the formation of norcocaine. Although this study was designed specifically for this

Medical hypotheses, 64(2), 350-356 (2004-12-21)
Cocaine is one of the principal drugs of abuse. Although impressive advances have been made, unanswered questions remain concerning mechanism of toxicity and addiction. Discussion of action mode usually centers on receptor binding and enzyme inhibition, with limited attention to
P Pellinen et al.
Archives of toxicology, 74(9), 511-520 (2000-12-29)
The first step in the oxidative metabolism of cocaine is N-demethylation to norcocaine, which is further N-hydroxylated to more toxic N-hydroxynorcocaine. In this study we examined the kinetics of norcocaine N-hydroxylation mediated by cytochrome P450 (CYP) in mouse and human

Electrophoresis, 29(20), 4270-4276 (2008-10-17)
We have employed a high-sensitivity on-line preconcentration method, cation-selective exhaustive injection (CSEI) and sweeping MEKC, for the analysis of cocaine, benzoylecgonine, norcocaine, and cocaethylene. We monitored the effects of several of the CSEI-sweeping-MEKC parameters - including the pH, the concentrations

Acute renal failure is a common finding in cocaine abusers. While cocaine metabolism may contribute to its nephrotoxic mechanisms, its pharmacokinetics in kidney cells is hitherto to be clarified. Primary cultures of human proximal tubular cells (HPTCs) provide a well-characterized
