Prenatal effects of alprazolam treatment on the immature cerebellum of rats
Int J Dev Neurosci. 2022 Aug 2. doi: 10.1002/jdn.10222. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe use of benzodiazepines (BZDs) during pregnancy, especially alprazolam, is common and its impact on the fetal neural tissue is not known. In this sense, the present study aimed to investigate the effects of prenatal treatment with alprazolam on the cerebellum of Wistar rat pups. Thirty animals (24 females and six males, CEUA protocol 014/17) were separated into pairs for copulation. Females were divided into three groups: Control (CT), treatment 1 (T1, 1.25 mg per animal), and treatment 2, which is an overdose (T2, 30 mg per animal). A...

The alprazolam analogue 4 ′‐chloro deschloroalprazolam identified in seized capsules
A new alprazolam analogue has been identified in seized material and characterised by a range of techniques. The analogue has very similar mass spectral properties to alprazolam and could be misidentified. AbstractNew designer benzodiazepines continue to be identified in the illicit drug market. In December 2021, eight capsules were submitted to ChemCentre for analysis. The samples were analysed by a range of analytical techniques including gas chromatography –mass spectrometry (GC–MS), ultraviolet–visible spectrophotometry, liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC–MS, low and high resolution), nuclear magnetic ...

Evaluation of extraction parameters in authentic hair reference material using statistical design of experiments
J Forensic Sci. 2022 May 4. doi: 10.1111/1556-4029.15051. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTOptimal methods for forensic hair analysis are often debated, especially regarding extraction parameters that include incubation time, temperature, and size of extracted hair particles. To assess hair pretreatment parameters for analysis of drugs of abuse, the statistical technique known as Design of Experiments (DoE) is useful. DoE evaluates both the individual roles and the combinatorial associations between multiple variables and overall drug extraction efficiency. Previous reports have focused on incorporated hair reference material...

Can GABAkines Quiet the Noise? The GABA < sub > A < /sub > Receptor Neurobiology and Pharmacology of Tinnitus
Biochem Pharmacol. 2022 Apr 30:115067. doi: 10.1016/j.bcp.2022.115067. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTTinnitus is a highly prevalent and disabling disorder in which sound is perceived in the absence of an external auditory energy source. The disorder is complex and can arise from multiple etiologies. Co-morbid symptoms of anxiety, depression, and sleep loss are prevalent. There are no approved medications and the treatments that have been studied produce marginal improvements in symptoms. A major hypothesis of the etiology and maintenance of tinnitus is that inhibitory input mechanisms become compromised where impairedγ-am...
