The effects of noradrenaline uptake inhibitors on contractions evoked by electric field stimulation, noradrenaline, clonidine. 5-hydroxytryptamine, ATP, high K+, and BaCl2 in the epididymal half of rat isolated vas deferens were examined. Protriptyline, amitriptyline and xylamine concentration-dependently inhibited monophasic contractions

Xylamine (XYL) administered to intact rats caused a 70-80% reduction in norepinephrine (NE) uptake by the vas deferens but had little or no effect on NE content in that tissue. The vas deferens accumulates 3H-XYL in vitro by a desmethylimipramine

The Journal of pharmacology and experimental therapeutics, 226(3), 650-655 (1983-09-01)
The accumulation of tritium-labeled xylamine ([3H]XYL), an irreversible inhibitor of neuronal norepinephrine (NE) uptake, was studied in organ-cultured rat superior cervical ganglia (SCG). At concentrations below those which significantly inhibit NE uptake, [3H]XYL accumulation was linear with time for up

Primary astrocyte cultures from neonatal rat brains show a Na+-dependent, desipramine-sensitive uptake of [3H]norepinephrine ([3H]NE). Xylamine, a nitrogen mustard, attenuated this uptake of [3H]NE into the astrocytes (IC50 = 0.8 microM). The dose-dependent reduction of [3H]NE uptake by xylamine indicated

Pharmacology, 48(5), 320-327 (1994-05-01)
The main objective of the present investigation was to determine whether the uptake of [3H]-dopamine in human lymphocytes is mediated through a serotonin transporter. This was examined by studying the effects of various monoamine uptake inhibitors on the uptake of
