Product Description: Amitriptyline is an inhibitor of serotonin reuptake transporter (SERT) and noradrenaline reuptake transporter (NET), with Kis of 3.45 nM and 13.3 nM for human SERT and NET, respectively. Amitriptyline also weakly binds to dopamine reuptake transporter (DAT) with a Ki of 2.58 μM. Amitriptyline also inhibits adrenergic, muscarinic, histamine and 5-HT receptors. Amitriptyline is a TrkA and TrkB receptors agonist with potent neurotrophic activity. Amitriptyline has antidepressant activity[1][2][3].
Applications: Metabolism-protein/nucleotide metabolism
Formula: C20H23N
