Application

Amoxapine has been used as an antidepressant drug to test its effect on locomotion and egg release in response to gain-of-functional mutations in potassium (K+) channels (unc-58) of C. elegans.[1] It has also been used as an antipsychotic drug to test its effect on the viability of glioblastoma cells.[2]

Biochem/physiol Actions

Amoxapine, a structural analog of clozapine, is a human ether a-go-go (hERG) channel blocker.[1] It is also an N-methylated metabolite of loxapine. It is a tricyclic antidepressant that inhibits the uptake of norepinephrine[3] and blocks 5- hydroxytryptamine (HT2 ) serotonergic receptors.

Drug intelligence & clinical pharmacy, 16(3), 199-204 (1982-03-01)
Amoxapine is a tricyclic antidepressant agent, which is chemically related to the antipsychotic agent loxapine, but which appears to block selectively the neuronal reuptake of norepinephrine; it is qualitatively similar to desipramine. In studies of patients with mixed depressive illnesses
S G Jue et al.
Drugs, 24(1), 1-23 (1982-07-01)
Amoxapine is an N-demethylated dibenzoxazepine closely related in the neuroleptic loxapine. Its tricyclic structure appears to give it antidepressant properties resembling imipramine and amitriptyline. In uncontrolled trials it was shown to have antidepressant activity in usual doses up to 200

Ion channels are known to be modulated by antidepressant drugs, but the molecular mechanisms are not known. We have shown that the antidepressant drug amoxapine suppresses rectifier outward K(+) (I(K)) currents in mouse cortical neurons. At a concentration of 10
