Biological Activity
| Description | Imipramine (Melipramine,G 22355) is a tricyclic antidepressant (TCA) of the dibenzazepine group, mainly used in the treatment of major depression and enuresis (inability to control urination). |
|---|---|
| In vitro | Imipramine in the microsomal incubation results in a predicted value for human clearance of 8.6 to 11 ml/min/kg, a slight underestimate of reported mean human blood clearance values (14–15 ml/min/kg). [1] Imipramine is metabolized into N-desmethylimipramine (84%), 2-hydroxyimipramine (10%), and 10-hydroxyimipramine (6%) in human hepatic microsomes. [2] Imipramine (3 μM) inhibits HERG-encoded potassium channels in a reversible manner in CHO cells. Imipramine (3 μM) inhibits HERG tail currents (IHERG) following test pulses to +20 mV with an IC50 of 3.4 μM and a Hill coefficient of 1.17 in CHO cells. Imipramine can completely block native cardiac IKr at 1μm in guinea-pig myocytes. [3] |
| In vivo | Imipramine (10 mg/kg b.i.d.) reverses the decreased sucrose intake of rats exposed to chronic mild stress. Imipramine (10 mg/kg b.i.d.) completely reverses stress caused decrease in D2-receptor binding in the limbic forebrain (but not the striatum). [4] Imipramine (15 mg/kg, IP) exerts anxiolytic-like effects in the two elevated T-maze tasks in male Wistar rats. Imipramine (15 mg/kg, IP) enhances both avoidance and escape latencies in male Wistar rats. Imipramine (15 mg/kg, IP) decreases locomotor activity measured in a square arena in male Wistar rats.
