Methotrexate was administered by intraperitoneal injection (100 mg/kg) to unirradiated mice, and to mice receiving varying doses of cranial irradiation. The animals were sacrificed 24 hours after injection, and methotrexate assays were performed on brain tissue. No methotrexate was detected in the
This article describes the experimental set-up and pharmacokinetic modeling of P-glycoprotein function in the rat blood-brain barrier using [ 11 C]verapamil as the substrate and cyclosporin A as an inhibitor of P-gp. [ 11 C]verapamil was administered to rats as an i.v. bolus dose followed by graded
