描述 | Vilazodone is a potent, selective and orally active serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) and partial 5-HT1A receptor agonist. Vilazodone (intraperitoneal injection; 3 mg/kg ; single dose) produces increases in extracellular levels of 5‐HT in both the frontal cortex (FC) and ventral hippocampus (vHipp) of rats in vivo microdialysis studies. Maximum increases are observed at 3 mg/kg and reaches 527% and 558% of preinjection baseline values in the FC and vHipp, respectively. Vilazodone (oral gavage ;55 mg/kg ; single dose) inhibits stress‐induced vocalizations in the rat ultrasonic vocalizations test at 120 and 210 min post dose[3]. Chronic vilazodone treatment markedly decreased 5-HT1A receptor levels in cortical and hippocampal regions, while the SSRIs increased levels of this receptor in similar regions[4]. Using in vivo microdialysis, vilazodone (10 mg/kg p.o.) was demonstrated to cause a 2-fold increase in extracellular 5-HT but no change in noradrenaline or dopamine levels in frontal cortex of freely moving rats. Vilazodone behaved as a high efficacy partial agonist at the rat hippocampal 5-HT1A receptors in vitro and occupied 5-HT transporters in vivo[5]. Vilazodone inhibited L-DOPA(Levodopa)-induced gene regulation selectively in the direct pathway of the dopamine-depleted striatum[6]. Vilazodone was generally well tolerated in the short- and long-term treatment of MDD(major depressive disorder), with diarrhoea and nausea being the most frequently occurring treatment-emergent adverse events[7]. |
