Amoxapine

Catalog No. T1568   CAS 14028-44-5
Synonyms: CL-67772

Amoxapine (CL-67772) exerts its antidepressant effect by inhibiting the re-uptake of norepinephrine and, to a lesser degree, of serotonin, at adrenergic nerve endings and blocks the response of dopamine receptors to dopamine. Amoxapine is a tricyclic antidepressant of the dibenzoxazepine class. This drug is used to treat symptoms of depression and may cause tardive dyskinesia. Amoxapine also binds to alpha-adrenergic, histaminergic, and cholinergic receptors which accounts for many of the side effects seen with this agent.

Amoxapine is a tricyclic antidepressant of the dibenzoxazepine class. This drug is used to treat symptoms of depression and may cause tardive dyskinesia.

Targets&IC50 GlyT1b:1 mM, GlyT2a:92 μM
In vitro Amoxapine, administered intraperitoneally (i.p.) at doses of 1, 5, and 10 mg/kg, notably at lower doses, was found to decrease paradoxical sleep and increase slow-wave sleep. Throughout the treatment period, a consistent reduction in paradoxical sleep was observed with Amoxapine (10 mg/kg, i.p.), although tolerance to the inhibition effect of cericlamine was noted in this sleep phase. Additionally, Amoxapine (10 mg/kg/day) did not affect the levels of Substance P, dynorphin, and cholecystokinin, but significantly increased leucine-enkephalin levels in the rat cortex, spinal cord, and hypothalamus. Despite not altering opioid receptor binding in the rat cortex, Amoxapine (10 mg/kg/day, i.p.) increased the density of δ- and μ-opioid receptor binding sites in the spinal cord and decreased it in the hypothalamus. Moreover, Amoxapine attenuated spontaneous activity, induced catalepsy and ptosis, and exhibited inhibitory effects on the dyskinetic movements induced by Apomorphine and stereotypy behaviors induced by amphetamine, through altering avoidance behaviors discerned by monkeys.
In vivo In both oocytes and HEK 293 cells, Amoxapine induces acute hERG channel blockade with IC50 values of 21.6 and 5.1 μM, respectively. In human embryonic kidney 293 cells, it selectively inhibits GLYT2a over its isotype GLYT1b by a factor of 10. Amoxapine leads to a blockade of reverse frequency dependence and causes a leftward shift with accelerated inactivation. Treatment with Amoxapine results in a gradual reduction of hERG transport to the cell membrane surface in HEK 293 cells, with an IC50 of 15.3 μM.

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the

  • Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
See Example

An example of a molarity calculation using the molarity calculator
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 10 ml of water given that the molecular weight of the compound is 197.13 g/mol?
Enter 197.13 into the Molecular Weight (MW) box
Enter 10 into the Concentration box and select the correct unit (millimolar)
Enter 10 into the Volume box and select the correct unit (milliliter)
Press calculate
The answer of 19.713 mg appears in the Mass box

The dilution calculator is a useful tool which allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentration. Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1.

See Example

An example of a dilution calculation using the Tocris dilution calculator
What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 20ml of a 50 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=50 μM, V2=20 ml and V1 is the unknown:
Enter 10 into the Concentration (start) box and select the correct unit (millimolar)
Enter 50 into the Concentration (final) box and select the correct unit (micromolar)
Enter 20 into the Volume (final) box and select the correct unit (milliliter)
