General description

Tianeptine is a μ-opioid receptor (MOR) as well as a δ-opioid receptor (DOR) agonist.

Application

Tianeptine sodium salt hydrate has been used as a selective serotonin reuptake enhancer (SSRE) positive control during serotonin transporter (SERT) assay in human embryonic kidney 293 cell lines.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Tianeptine is a tricyclic antidepressant that enhances serotonin uptake. This drug can affect neuroprotection, neuronal excitability, memory and anxiety. However, tianeptine is not linked to adverse psychomotor, cognitive, cardiovascular, sleep and bodyweight effects. The drug has a low tendency for abuse and has a positive pharmacokinetic profile.
Tianeptine is least involved in drug interaction as it is not metabolized by cytochrome P450 system in the liver. In hippocampus and amygdala, tianeptine is involved in glutamatergic transmission processes and elicits neuroplasticity.
