Abuse of novel arylcyclohexylamines (ACX) poses risks for toxicities, including adverse neurocognitive effects. In vivo effects of ring-substituted analogs of phencyclidine (PCP), eticyclidine (PCE), and ketamine are understudied. Adult male National Institutes of Health Swiss mice were used to assess locomotor effects of PCP and its 3-OH, 3-MeO, 3-Cl, and 4-MeO analogs, PCE and its 3-OH and...
Humans often administer psychostimulants in party or music festival settings characterized by warm ambient temperatures, which may impact drug effects; however, preclinical studies rarely investigate drug effects at multiple ambient temperatures. Work with 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) and 3,4-methylenedioxypyrovalerone (MDPV) suggests that the presence of a 3,4-methylenedioxy ring...
