説明

The effects of trazodone (KB-831) and its metabolites on the uptake, turnover and contents of monoamines in rats were studied in comparison with those of imipramine and mianserin. Trazodone exhibited a more potent inhibitory effect on the uptake of [3H] 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) into brain synaptosomes than on the uptake of [3H]norepinephrine (NE). Trazodone at 10 ?? 30 mg/kg, p.o., also inhibited the p-chloramphetamine-induced depletion of 5-HT in rat brain, but not the 6-hydroxydopamine-induced NE depletion in rat heart. Trazodone was the most selective 5-HT uptake inhibitor among the drugs tested in vitro. Its metabolite, m-chlorophenyl-piperazine (m-CPP), inhibited 5-HT and NE uptake in vitro, but not in vivo. Trazodone (100 mg/kg) and imipramine (30 ?? 100 mg/kg) inhibited the depletion of NE induced by α-methyl-p-tyrosine, whereas mianserin (100 mg/kg) facilitated it. At l hr after a single administration of each drug, an increase in 5-HT content and a decrease in 5-hydroxyindole-3-acetic acid (5-HIAA) content were observed when 30 mg/kg trazodone was used. At 100 mg/kg, trazodone increased the levels of dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC) and homovanillic acid (HVA) and decreased the NE content. m-CPP (10 ?? 30 mg/kg) produced similar effects on monoamine contents to those of trazodone. Imipramine and mianserin had no effect on monoamine contents even at a dose of 100 mg/kg. After 3 weeks of successive administration, an increase in 5-HT and a decrease in .5-HIAA were induced by trazodone and m-CPP at 1 hr, but not at 17 hr, after the final administration. Imipramine decreased the contents of NE and 5-HIAA, and its effects lasted for 17 hr. These results suggest that trazodone is a selective 5-HT uptake inhibitor and that its neurochemical profile is different from those of imipramine and mianserin.
