Nomelidine (norzimelidine), the active N-demethylated metabolite of zimelidine, is a potent and specific inhibitor of [14C]5-HT uptake in synaptosome rich homogenates of rat hypothalamus. Nomelidine inhibits the uptake of 5-HT more potently than the parent compound. Zimelidine (ZIM) and its main active metabolite norzimelidine (NZIM) have been shown to preferentially inhibit 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) neuronal uptake both in vitro and in vivo while having much less effect on noradrenaline (NA) uptake.

Sample Use Guides

In Vivo Use Guide

Mice: norzimelidine (20-40 mg kg-1) moderately antagonized the hypothermia induced by reserpine; norzimelidine (10-40 mg kg-1) antagonized, in a dose-dependent manner, the hypothermia induced by 16 mg kg-1 of apomorphine.

Route of Administration: Intraperitoneal

In Vitro Use Guide

Nomelidine (norzimelidine) (5 X 10(-5) M) was more potent inhibitor of the 3H-EN uptake than that of 3H-NE into rat brain crude synaptosomes.
