AIMS: To determine the human cytochromes mediating biotransformation of the imidazopyridine hypnotic, zolpidem, and the clinical correlates of the findings. METHODS: Kinetic properties of zolpidem biotransformation to its three hydroxylated metabolites were studied in vitro using human liver microsomes and heterologously expressed individual human cytochromes. RESULTS: The metabolic product termed M-3 accounted for more than 80% of net intrinsic clearance by liver microsomes in vitro. Microsomes containing human cytochromes CYP1A2, 2C9, 2C19, 2D6, and 3 A4 expressed by cDNA-transfected human lymphoblastoid cells mediated zolpidem metabolism in vitro. The kinetic profile for zolpidem metabolite formation by each individual cytochrome was combined with estimated relative abundances based on immunological quantification, yielding projected contributions to net intrinsic clearance of: 61% for 3 A4, 22% for 2C9, 14% for 1A2, and less than 3% for 2D6 and 2C19. These values were consistent with inhibitory effects of ketoconazole and sulfaphenazole on zolpidem biotransformation by liver microsomes. Ketoconazole had a 50% inhibitory concentration (IC50 ) of 0.61 microm vs formation of the M-3 metabolite of zolpidem in vitro; in a clinical study, ketoconazole coadministration reduced zolpidem oral clearance by approximately 40%, somewhat less than anticipated based on the IC50 value and total plasma ketoconazole levels, but much more than predicted based on unbound plasma ketoconazole levels. CONCLUSIONS: The incomplete dependence of zolpidem clearance on CYP3A activity has clinical implications for susceptibility to metabolic inhibition.

RATIONALE: If a psychoactive drug shares discriminative effects with one that maintains self-administration, it is often inferred that the test drug is likely to be self-administered and to have abuse liability. This presumed predictive relationship has not been studied directly, however. OBJECTIVE: To determine at the level of the individual subject (1) whether a novel drug dose that shares discriminative effects with a reinforcing drug dose also will serve as a reinforcer, and (2) whether the results of generalization tests for drugs pharmacologically similar to the training drug predict whether the test drugs will or will not be self-administered. METHODS: Baboons were trained to discriminate midazolam (0.32 mg/kg, IV) from saline and also under a schedule of IV drug reinforcement. At the beginning of a period of self-administration, the first self-injection was followed 10 min later by a drug discrimination test session. The baboon then had the opportunity to self-administer the same dose 24 h/day (3-h timeout after each injection). A second drug discrimination test followed the last self-injection of the condition. RESULTS: Zolpidem and imidazenil shared discriminative effects with midazolam. Zolpidem was reinforcing in all baboons, but imidazenil was not. Chlordiazepoxide partially shared discriminative effects with midazolam, and the rate of self-administration was low. Pentobarbital did not share discriminative effects with midazolam, but was reinforcing. For all drugs, some doses did not share discriminative effects with midazolam but were reinforcing. Generalization gradients from tests after the last self-injection were similar to those after the first self-injection. CONCLUSIONS: The discriminative effect of a drug in relation to a training drug of the same pharmacological class is not isomorphic with its reinforcing effectiveness.
