Bioactivity | Centanafadine is dual norepinephrine (NE)/dopamine (DA) transporter inhibitor, also inhibits serotonin transporter, with IC50s of 6 nM, 38 nM and 83 nM for human NE, DA and serotonin transporter , respectively. |
Target | IC50: 6 nM (human NE), 38 nM (human DA), 83 nM (human serotonin). |
Invitro | Centanafadine (EB-1020) preferentially inhibits monoamine reuptake in cloned cell lines transfected with human transporters with IC50 values of 6 and 38 nM, respectively, for NE and DA transporters, Centanafadine has lesser effects on 5-HT transporter as it inhibits the reuptake of 5-HT with an IC50 value of 83 nM [1]. |
In Vivo | In microdialysis studies, Centanafadine markedly increases NE, and DA concentrations levels in rat prefrontal cortex in vivo with peak increases of 375 and 300%, respectively with the greatest effects on NE, and also increases DA extracellular concentrations in the striatum to 400% of baseline concentrations. Behavioral studies demonstrate that Centanafadine dose-dependently decreases immobility in the mouse tail suspension test of depression to 13% of control levels, and do not stimulate locomotor activity in adult rats in the optimal dose range. Centanafadine dose-dependently inhibits locomotor hyperactivity in juvenile rats lesioned with the neurotoxin 6-hydroxydopamine (100 μg intracisternally) as neonates; a well-established animal model for attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)[1]. |
