Mephedrone and MDMA: A comparative review

Brain Research, 2020
Mephedrone and MDMA are both constituents of party drugs, with mephedrone being relatively new compared to MDMA. This review compares current knowledge regarding the patterns of usage and neuropsychobiological effects of both mephedrone and MDMA.

How hydrogen bonding and π-π interactions synergistically facilitate mephedrone adsorption by bio-sorbent: An in-depth microscopic scale interpretation.

Environmental Pollution, 2023
Mephedrone (4-methylmethcathinone, MEPH) exhibited severe ecologic hazards and health detriments. A novel deep eutectic solvent functionalized magnetic ZIF-8/hierarchical porous carbon (DMZH) with excellent selectivity, interference resistance and ...

A web-based survey on mephedrone

Drug and Alcohol Dependence, 2011
This study sought to collect information on the former legal-high 'mephedrone' using a web-based survey targeted at mephedrone users.The survey was advertised on websites frequented by drug users. Individuals were invited to complete the survey if they had taken mephedrone on at least one occasion in the past.One thousand and six completed forms were ...

The L‐arginine‐NO‐cGMP pathway mediates the locomotor activity alterations during the expression of sensitization to mephedrone in mice

Clinical and Experimental Pharmacology and Physiology, 2023
Mephedrone is a representative of synthetic cathinones that is known from its rewarding and psychostimulant effects. It exerts behavioural sensitization after repeated and then interrupted administration.

Mephedrone induced apoptosis and impaired neurogenesis in embryonic neural stem/progenitor cells.

Canadian Journal of Physiology and Pharmacology, 2023
INTRODUCTION Mephedrone, a synthetic derivative of cathinone, is a commonly used psychoactive substance. Exposure to mephedrone during pregnancy induced antiproliferative and proapoptotic effects in hippocampous of mice delivered pups. The aim of present

The role of the L-arginine-NO-cGMP-dependent pathway in the development of sensitization to mephedrone effects on the locomotor activity in mice.

Behavioural Brain Research, 2022
Mephedrone, a popular psychostimulating substance widely used illegally in recreational purposes, exerts in rodents that regularly and intermittently were exposed to it a sensitized response to the drug.
