Pharmacological Characterization of Toludesvenlafaxine as a Triple Reuptake Inhibitor.

ABSTRACT: Toludesvenlafaxine hydrochloride dihydrate is a novel chemical entity and a potential triple monoamine reuptake inhibitor. This study characterized the in vitro triple reuptake inhibition activity, antidepressant-like activity in animals, and pharmacokinetic profiles in rats of toludesvenlafaxine. Binding affinity was determined using human serotonin transporter (SERT) protein, norepinephrine transporter (NET) protein and dopamine transporter (DAT) protein, and the reuptake inhibition was determined using Chinese hamster ovary cells expressing human SERT, NET and DAT. The antidepressant-like activity was examined in rat chronic unpredictable mild stress model and olfactory bulbectomized model. In rats, the tissue distribution and pharmacokinetic parameters were determined. Toludesve
