Description
Curator's Comment: description was created based on several sources, including https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11895133 | https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12067559 | https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17255098 | https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19897082

Cocaine is an alkaloid ester extracted from the leaves of plants including coca. Cocaine is a local anesthetic and vasoconstrictor and is clinically used for that purpose, particularly in the eye, ear, nose, and throat. It also has powerful central nervous system effects similar to the amphetamines and is a drug of abuse. Cocaine, like amphetamines, acts by multiple mechanisms on brain catecholaminergic neurons; the mechanism of its reinforcing effects is thought to involve inhibition of dopamine uptake. Cocaine is addictive due to its effect on the reward pathway in the brain. After a short period of use, there is a high risk that dependence will occur. Its use also increases the risk of stroke, myocardial infarction, lung problems in those who smoke it, blood infections, and sudden cardiac death. Cocaine sold on the street is commonly mixed with local anesthetics, cornstarch, quinine, or sugar which can result in additional toxicity. Following repeated doses, a person may have decreased the ability to feel pleasure and be very physically tired. Cocaine acts by inhibiting the reuptake of serotonin, norepinephrine, and dopamine. This results in greater concentrations of these three neurotransmitters in the brain. It can easily cross the blood-brain barrier and may lead to the breakdown of the barrier.

Sample Use Guides

Cocaine HCl 10% topical solution, up to 4 mL, is applied for 20 minutes via cotton pledget(s)
Route of Administration: Topical
Neuronal cultures were prepared from 18-day-old Sprague–Dawley rat fetuses. Cultures were used for neurotoxicity experiments after 12 days in culture. To assess any toxic effects of cocaine per se, 10 mL aliquots of three different dilutions of the cocaine stock solution (0.1–10 mM final concentration in the medium) were added to cell cultures. Appropriate vehicle controls (same volume of solvent added) were included for each group.
