Description
(extracted from source data)
PHARMACODYNAMICS Agomelatine resynchronises circadian rhythms in animal models of delayed sleep phase syndrome and other circadian rhythm disruptions. It increases noradrenaline and dopamine release specifically in the frontal cortex and has no influence on the extracellular levels of serotonin. Agomelatine has shown an antidepressant-like effect in animal depression models, (learned helplessness test, despair test, and chronic mild stress) circadian rhythm desynchronisation, and in stress and anxiety models. In humans, agomelatine has positive phase shifting properties; it induces a phase advance of sleep, body temperature decline and melatonin onset. Controlled studies in humans have shown that agomelatine is as effective as the SSRI antidepressants paroxetine and sertraline in the treatment of major depression
INDICATION Agomelatine is indicated to treat major depressive episodes in adults.
DESCRIPTION Agomelatine is a melatonergic (i.e. it acts as a a melatonin receptor agonist) antidepressant, devoid of the side-effects caused by SSRI, SNRI and tricyclic antidepressants. The drug also has low affinity for 5-HT2C receptors. (GtoPdb)
DESCRIPTION Agomelatine (S-20098) is a specific agonist of MT1 and MT2 receptors with Kis of 0.1, 0.06, 0.12, and 0.27 nM for CHO-hMT1, HEK-hMT1, CHO-hMT2, and HEK-hMT2, respectively[1]. Agomelatine is a selective 5-HT2C receptor antagonist with pKis of 6.4 and 6.2 at native (porcine) and cloned, human 5-HT2C receptors, respectively[2].

DESCRIPTION Agomelatine hydrochloride (S-20098 hydrochloride) is a specific agonist of MT1 and MT2 receptors with Kis of 0.1, 0.06, 0.12, and 0.27 nM for CHO-hMT1, HEK-hMT1, CHO-hMT2, and HEK-hMT2, respectively[1]. Agomelatine hydrochloride is a selective 5-HT2C receptor antagonist with pKis of 6.4 and 6.2 at native (porcine) and cloned, human 5-HT2C receptors, respectively[2].
PRICE 33
DESCRIPTION Agomelatine L(+)-Tartaric acid (S-20098 L(+)-Tartaric acid) is a specific agonist of MT1 and MT2 receptors with Kis of 0.1, 0.06, 0.12, and 0.27 nM for CHO-hMT1, HEK-hMT1, CHO-hMT2, and HEK-hMT2, respectively[1]. Agomelatine L(+)-Tartaric acid is a selective 5-HT2C receptor antagonist with pKis of 6.4 and 6.2 at native (porcine) and cloned, human 5-HT2C receptors, respectively[2].
DESCRIPTION Agomelatine (Valdoxan) is structurally closely related to melatonin. Agomelatine is a potent agonist at melatonin receptors and an antagonist at serotonin-2C (5-HT2C) receptors, tested in an animal model of depression. (TargetMol Bioactive Compound Library)
DESCRIPTION The hydrochloride salt form of Agomelatine that is an antidepressant agent for acting as an antagonism of the 5-HT2C receptor. It is also an antagonist of 5-HT2B receptors. IC50: 6.2 and 6.6 for 5-HT2c and 5-HT2b respectively (pKi ). (BOC Sciences Bioactive Compounds)
DESCRIPTION Agomelatine hydrochloride (S-20098 hydrochloride) is a specific MT1 and MT2 receptor agonist with Ki values of 0.1 nM for CHO-hMT1, 0.06 nM for HEK-hMT1, 0.12 nM for CHO-hMT2, and 0.27 nM for HEK-hMT2, respectively [1]. Additionally, Agomelatine hydrochloride is a selective antagonist of the 5-HT2C receptor with pKi values of 6.4 and 6.2 for native (porcine) and cloned human 5-HT2C receptors, respectively [2]. (TargetMol Bioactive Compound Library)
DESCRIPTION Agomelatine L(+)-Tartaric acid is classified as a norepinephrine-dopamine disinhibitor (NDDI) due to its antagonism of the 5-HT2C receptor. It is used as an antidepressant drug. It has been approved by FDA in October 2011. It has toxicities, such as Hyperhidrosis, Abdominal pain, Nausea, Vomiting, Diarrhoea, Constipation, Back pain, Fatigue and so on.
