A BRAND NEW HOPE FOR ADDICTS


 

A lot of people who become addicted to methamphetamine, cocaine or even heroin truly want to quit. They begin with recreational use and don't think they will become addicted, but (they) soon get to the point where they almost must take the drug to survive, because withdrawal is so intense. Making withdrawal more endurable – and therefore, cessation more likely – is the goal of several projects in McCurdy's medicinal chemistry laboratory. Among them is a National Institutes of Health Centers of Biomedical Research Excellence-funded study of Kratom, a botanical mixture derived from Mitragyna speciosa, a treelike plant native to Southeast Asia.

 

In Southeast Asia, Kratom has long been used for coughs, diarrhea, muscle aches and pain. It is also used as a replacement for opium when opium isn't available and has been used to wean people off (that narcotic). Taking the work a step further, the group isolated the plant's most abundant alkaloid, mitragynine, and tested the pure compound. Results indicate Kratom's activity is superior to methadone in the mouse withdrawal assay and that carefully created chemical variations may provide an alternative to methadone in treating addictions to opiates.

 

Just as promising as the work on that Kratom study, is another study funded by the National Institute on Drug Abuse, which indicates several small molecules [of Kratom] that block the behavioral and toxic effects of cocaine and methamphetamine in animal models by coupling with sigma receptors in the brain. These highly selective compounds have been studied by a group of international collaborators, including McCurdy, Jacques H. Poupaert, a medicinal chemistry professor at the Université Catholique de Louvain in Belgium, Rae R. Matsumoto, associate dean of research and graduate programs at West Virginia's School of Pharmacy, and Frederick T. Chin, head of cyclotron radiochemistry in the Stanford University Medical Center's molecular imaging program.

 

Jonathan L. Katz, chief of the Psychobiology Section of NIDA's Intramural Research Program in Baltimore and his colleague, Takato Hiranita, tested the compound in cocaine-addicted rats. "When given the drug [Kratom], the rats stopped taking cocaine," Katz said. "But what makes this drug so interesting is that the drug had no effect in the other activities of the rats. This kind of selectivity is what makes drugs suitable as medicines."

Today, nothing is available to either treat cocaine and methamphetamine addiction or block the seizures and other complications associated with overdoses of drugs with monikers such as crack, crystal methamphetamine and ecstasy.http://www.buykratom.us/
