Objectives: Cocaine has been well known as a representative drug of abuse for its strong reinforcing effect linked to the mesolimbic reward system including dopamine, and such reinforcement leads to the addiction. Acupuncture has been used widely in eastern Asia for the treatment of various diseases including mental disorders and psychiatric problems, and is gathering more interest as one of the complementary and alternative medicines in western countries. In a previous study, we demonstrated that acupuncture at HT7 could affect dopamine release in the mesolimbic system of rats sensitized to alcohol and morphine. This study was designed to investigate whether acupuncture at HT7 could attenuate cocaine intake or not. Material & Methods: Male Sprague-Dawley rats weighing 270-300 g at the start of experiment were trained to self-administer food pellets under a fixed ratio 1 schedule. After the success of acquisition of 100 pellets within 3 h for 3 consecutive days, animals were subjected to surgery whereby Silastic tubing was implanted into right jugular vein and secured with mesh under the anesthetization using pentobarbital injection (50 mg/kg, i.p.). Following recovery, rats were trained to self-administer cocaine (0.25 mg/kg) in daily 2 h sessions under fixed ratio 1 schedule over 10 days. Each treatment was performed on the next day of each establishment of baseline. Results: Results show that acupuncture at HT7, but not at control points, reduced cocaine intake significantly. Acupuncture at HT7 decreased selectively active lever response from $63.15{\pm}3.35$ to $51.46{\pm}3.99$ corresponding $82.12{\pm}5.31%$ compared to basal level. Also, it was demonstrated that the effect of acupuncture was mainly occurred at the half period. Nevertheless, acupuncture at HT7 did not influence the food taking behavior. Conclusions: From the results of this study, it may be suggested that acupuncture at HT7, at least in part, could contribute to the treatment of cocaine abuse.

The characteristics of dopamine uptake, D-1 and D-2 receptors after acute and subacute cocaine administration were determind in striatum from WKY and SHR. Cocaine was administered either acutely (40 mg/kg, s.c.) or twice daily (20 mg/kg, s.c.) for 3 and 7 days in 9-wk old WKY and SHR. Rats were sacrificed 30 min, 2 or 24 h after the single injection and 18 h after the last administration to the subacutely treated group. The changes in dopamine uptake, dopamine uptake sites, D-1 and D-2 receptors were determined using $(^3H)$dopamine, $(^3H)$-GBR-12935, $(^3H)$SCH-23390 and $(^3H)$sulpiride, respectively. In acutely treated rats, significant increases in $V_{max}$of dopamine uptake were observed 30 min after the cocanine injection in both strains without changes in $K_m$ values. The in vitro $IC_{50}$for cocaine was significantly decreased 30 min in WKY and 2 h in SHR. However, that for in vitro GBR-12909 was significantly increased 30 min and 2 h in both strains. Also densities of $(^3H)$-GBR-12935 binding sites were significantly increased 30 min and 2 h without changes in their $K_d$. Significant increases in D-2 receptor density were observed 30 min, 2 or 24 h after acute injection in both strains without changes in their affinities. The density of D-1 receptor was significantly decreased 30 min after the injection in WKY, but not in SHR. In subacutely treated rats, a significant increase in $K_m$ of dopamine uptake was observed in 7-day treated SHR. The in vitro $IC_{50}$fot GBR-12909 was significantly increased in 3-day treated WKY. The density of D-1 receptors was significantly increased in 3- and 7-day treated WKY, but not in SHR. The affinity of both binding sites remained unchanged. The results suggest that cocanine administration alters dopamine uptake, characteristics of dopamine uptake sites and dopamine receptor binding characteristics in rat brain. Furthermore, D-1 and D-2 dopamine receptors appear to be differently regulated.

Drug abuse has become a major social problem of the modern world and majority of these abusive drugs or their metabolites are excreted through the kidneys and, thus, the renal complications of these drugs are very common. Morphine, heroin, cocaine, nicotine and alcohol are the most commonly abused drugs, and their use is associated with various types of renal toxicity. The renal complications include a wide range of glomerular, interstitial and vascular diseases leading to acute or chronic renal failure. The present review discusses the renal toxicity profile and possible mechanisms of commonly abused drugs including morphine, heroin, cocaine, nicotine, caffeine and alcohol.

The effect of ccocaine on reproductive system were studied in male ICR mice. daily injection of cocaine HCL (10, and 40 mg/kg s.c for 15 days) disrupted epididymal sperm levels and testicular morphology. These disruptions were manifested in a decreased number of sperum, an increased number of dead sperm as compared with control vehicle, and wre evidenced by vacuolations, multinucleated giant cell formations and coagulation necrosis in the testicular seminiferous tubules. Responses in the current study were trended in dose dependent pattem. These results suggest that thronic cocaine intoxication can perturb on male reproductive organ functioning.

A 35-year-old Perubian who suffered from grand mal seizures died in aircraft on his way from United States to Hongkong. When he boarded the aircraft, he was normal but later he suffered from hyperthermia, dizziness, abdominal pain, agitation and convulsion in the flight before dead. While performing the autopsy, 115 cocaine packs were found in the GI tract. To determine the concentration of cocaine and its metabolites, blood, urine, bile juice, gastric content, liver, spleen, heart, kidney, cellebrum and lung were taken and analyzed. (omitted)

목적 : 본 연구는 코카인 연구에 사용된 경혈을 고찰하고 그 효능을 경락학설의 관점에서 해석하기 위해 수행되었다. 방법 : 논문 검색 사이트 PubMed에서 50 개의 논문, KISS에서 16 개의 논문, OASIS에서 9 개의 논문, NDSL에서 40 개의 논문, DBPIA에서 19 개의 논문을 '코카인' 또는 '침'을 검색어로 하여 조사하였다. 영문로 작성된 코카인(남용, 의존, 민감화, 섭취, 금단 증상, 재발, 탐닉)에 관한 논문을 조사하였고 수기침이나 전침만을 대상으로 하였으며 이침은 제외하였다. 결과 : 가장 많이 이용된 경혈은 신문(HT7)이었고 합곡(LI4), 태연(LU9), 족삼리(ST36), 삼음교(SP6) 등은 한 번씩 사용되었다. 신문은 수소음심경이 뇌의 기능과 깊이 관련되어 있다는 것 및 혈명이 가지는 뜻으로부터 충분히 이해될 수 있으며 태연은 신문의 효능을 증강시키는 것으로 생각된다. 합곡은 머리 꼭대기로 흐르는 궐음경을 조절하는 것으로 생각되고 족삼리는 궐음과 관련된 스트레스 반응을 조절하는 것으로 보이며 삼음교는 정신질환에 효능이 있으므로 뇌 기능을 조절하기 위해 사용된 것으로 생각된다. 결론 : 코카인 연구에 사용된 경혈은 다양한 경로를 통해 뇌 기능에 영향을 주는 것으로 사료되며 장부상통 이론이 일정 부분 관련되어 있는 것으로 생각된다.
