Sertraline, a new selective 5-HT uptake inhibitor showed a mixed pattern of inhibition of human platelet 5-HT uptake with a Ki value of 2.5 nM and K'i value of 25 nM. Imipramine and alaproclate were found to be fully competitive inhibitors of 5-HT uptake with Ki values of 8 and 130 nM respectively. Sertraline was a fully competitive inhibitor of high-affinity [3H]imipramine binding to platelet membranes with a Ki value of 1.3 nM, as was alaproclate and 5-HT with Ki values of 170 and 800 nM respectively. Both sertraline and imipramine, at a concentration of 10 microM caused a fast monophasic dissociation of [3H]imipramine from platelet membranes in contrast to serotonin which caused a slow monophasic dissociation.

D007099 Imipramine The prototypical tricyclic antidepressant. It has been used in major depression, dysthymia, bipolar depression, attention-deficit disorders, agoraphobia, and panic disorders. It has less sedative effect than some other members of this therapeutic group.

D009281 Naphthalenes Two-ring crystalline hydrocarbons isolated from coal tar. They are used as intermediates in chemical synthesis, as insect repellents, fungicides, lubricants, preservatives, and, formerly, as topical antiseptics.
D011985 Receptors, Serotonin Cell-surface proteins that bind SEROTONIN and trigger intracellular changes which influence the behavior of cells.

D000409 Alanine A non-essential amino acid that occurs in high levels in its free state in plasma. It is produced from pyruvate by transamination. It is involved in sugar and acid metabolism, increases IMMUNITY, and provides energy for muscle tissue, BRAIN, and the CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM.

D001667 Binding, Competitive The interaction of two or more substrates or ligands with the same binding site. The displacement of one by the other is used in quantitative and selective affinity measurements. Competitive Binding
D012701 Serotonin A biochemical messenger and regulator, synthesized from the essential amino acid L-TRYPTOPHAN. In humans it is found primarily in the central nervous system, gastrointestinal tract, and blood platelets. Serotonin mediates several important physiological functions including neurotransmission, gastrointestinal motility, hemostasis, and cardiovascular integrity. Multiple receptor families (RECEPTORS, SEROTONIN) explain the broad physiological actions and distribution of this biochemical mediator. 5-HT,5-Hydroxytryptamine,3-(2-Aminoethyl)-1H-indol-5-ol,Enteramine,Hippophaine,Hydroxytryptamine,5 Hydroxytryptamine
D015057 1-Naphthylamine A suspected industrial carcinogen (and listed as such by OSHA). Its N-hydroxy metabolite is strongly carcinogenic and mutagenic. 1-Aminonaphthalene,alpha-Naphthylamine,8-Aminonaphthalene,Naphthalidine,1 Aminonaphthalene,1 Naphthylamine,8 Aminonaphthalene,alpha Naphthylamine
