CTDP-32476
CTDP-32476 is a dopamine transporter (DAT) inhibitor with antidepressant activity, exhibiting a Ki value of 12 nM for human DAT and moderate affinity for the norepinephrine transporter (NET). CTDP-32476 blocks DAT to increase extracellular dopamine levels, and induces locomotor stimulation and brain-stimulation reward effects in rats. CTDP-32476 is used in research related to drug addiction.

Biological Activity
Description
In Vitro
CTDP-32476 (10 nM-100 μM; 60 min) potently binds human DAT expressed in HEK293 cells with a Ki value of 12 nM[1].
CTDP-32476 (10 pM-100 μM; 60 min) is a potent competitive inhibitor of human DAT expressed in HEK293 cells[1].

In Vivo
CTDP-32476 (0.25-1.0 mg/kg; intravenous injection; daily administration for 3 consecutive days) shows significantly lower rewarding efficacy than psychostimulants[1].
CTDP-32476 (3-20 mg/kg; i.p.; single administration) dose-dependently inhibits schedule-controlled self-administration behavior under a fixed-ratio 2 reinforcement schedule in rats with a history of stimulant exposure[1].
CTDP-32476 (3-20 mg/kg; i.p.; single administration) pretreatment reduces the rewarding efficacy of psychostimulants, with a significant effect at the 20 mg/kg dose[1].
CTDP-32476 (10-20 mg/kg; i.p.; single administration) pretreatment dose-dependently reduces psychostimulant self-administration behavior and total intake in rats with a history of psychostimulant exposure within a certain dose range[1].
CTDP-32476 (10-20 mg/kg; i.p.; once daily for 7 consecutive days) administered chronically during extinction training significantly reduces cue-induced reinstatement of controlled stimulant-seeking behavior in rats with a history of controlled stimulant exposure[1].
CTDP-32476 (10-20 mg/kg; i.p.; single administration or 30 μM; local perfusion into the nucleus accumbens; single administration) systemically induces a slow-onset and sustained elevation of dopamine (DA) levels in the nucleus accumbens[1].
CTDP-32476 (3-10 mg/kg; i.p.; single administration) produces a slow-onset, long-lasting, and dose-dependent increase in locomotor activity in rats following systemic administration[1].
Systemic administration of CTDP-32476 (3-10 mg/kg; i.p.; single dose) produces a slow-onset, long-lasting, and dose-dependent enhancement of brain stimulation reward in rats, which differs from the rapid-onset effect of methylbenzoylecgonine[1].

Protocols
-
Protocol for Tail Suspension Test (TST)
The Tail Suspension Test is a mouse behavioral assay in which an animal is suspended by the tail in an inescapable position, causing alternating escape-directed activity and immobility; the main readout is immobility time, and antidepressant-like treatments generally reduce immobility compared with vehicle controls. The assay detects behavioral response to acute inescapable stress rather than a molecular event; immobility is interpreted as passive stress-coping behavior, while reduced immobility is used as a predictive screen for antidepressant-like activity, with important limitations related to strain, locomotor activity, and tail-climbing behavior.
-
Protocol for Forced Swim Test (FST)
The Forced Swim Test is a rodent behavioral assay in which a mouse or rat is placed in an inescapable cylinder of water, and the main readout is the time spent immobile versus active escape-related behaviors such as swimming or climbing. Reduced immobility after treatment has historically been interpreted as antidepressant-like activity, but the assay should be interpreted as a behavioral response to acute inescapable stress rather than a complete model of human depression.
