Lofepramine
Synonym(s): Lopramine
- CAS No.: 23047-25-8
- Formula:C26H27ClN2O
- Molecular Weight:418.96
IUPAC Name: 1-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-((3-(10,11-dihydro-5H-dibenzo[b,f]azepin-5-yl)propyl)(methyl)amino)ethan-1-one
InChIKey: SAPNXPWPAUFAJU-UHFFFAOYSA-N
SMILES: CN(CC(C1=CC=C(Cl)C=C1)=O)CCCN2C3=CC=CC=C3CCC4=CC=CC=C42
Biological Activity: Lofepramine (Lopramine) is a modified tricyclic and orally active antidepressant. Lofepramine inhibits the uptake of Noradrenaline (NA) (HY-13715) and 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) with IC50s of 2.7 μM and 11 μM, respectively. Lofepramine exerts its antidepressant activity by promoting noradrenergic neurotransmission. Lofepramine also enhances serotonergic neurotransmission by inhibiting neuronal uptake of 5-HT and tryptophan pyrrolase. Lofepramine exhibits significant anxiolytic properties. [1][2][3][4].

Lofepramine-d3 | Lofepramine-d3 (Lopramine-d3) is the deuterium labeled Lofepramine. Lofepramine (Lopramine) is a potent tricyclic antidepressant and is extensively metabolised to Desipramine. The antidepressant activity of Lofepramine stems from the facilitation of noradrenergic neurotransmission by uptake inhibition. Lofepramine may also potentiate serotoninergic neurotransmission by inhibition of the neuronal uptake of serotonin and the enzyme tryptophan pyrrolase. Lofepramine has significant anxiolytic efficacy in addition to its antidepressant properties. | |||||||||||||||||||||
