説明Doxepin is a tricyclic antidepressant that binds to the serotonin (5-HT) transporter (SERT) and norepinephrine transporter (NET; Kds = 68 and 29.5 nM, respectively). It is a histamine H1 receptor antagonist (Ki = 1.23 nM). Doxepin selectively binds to SERT and NET over the dopamine transporter (DAT; Kd = 12,100 nM) and inhibits histamine H1 over H2, H3, and H4 receptors (Kis = 170, 39,810, and 15,135 nM, respectively). It also binds to the 5-HT2 receptor, as well as to muscarinic acetylcholine and α1-adrenergic receptors (α1-ARs; Kds = 27, 23, and 23.5 nM, respectively). Doxepin (10 mg/kg, i.p.) decreases allodynia and hyperalgesia in a mouse model of chronic constriction injury-induced neuropathic pain. It increases the distance traveled in the center of the open field test and reduces immobility time in the forced swim test in a mouse model of depression induced by chronic stress when administered orally at a dose of 15 mg/kg. Formulations containing doxepin have been used in the treatment of depression and insomnia.

使用Doxepin hydrochloride is a tricyclic antidepressant that inhibits the reuptake of serotonin and norepinephrine and acts as an antagonist at histamine, serotonin, adrenergic, and muscarinic receptors with Ki values in the nanomolar range.It is a antidepressant used clinically to treat anxiety and depression.

一般的な説明Doxepin, 3-dibenz[b,e]-oxepin-11(6H)ylidine-N,N-dimethyl-1-propanamine hydrochloride, N,N-dimethyl-3-(dibenz[b,e]oxepin-11(6H)-ylidene)propylamine (Sinequan, Adapin), isan oxa congener of amitriptyline, as can be seen from itsstructure.The oxygen is interestingly placed and should influenceoxidative metabolism as well as postsynaptic and presynapticbinding affinities. The (Z)-isomer is the more active, althoughthe drug is marketed as the mixture of isomers. Thedrug overall is a NE and 5-HT reuptake blocker with significantanticholinergic and sedative properties. It can be anticipatedthat the nor- or des- metabolite will contribute to theoverall activity pattern.
