Application

Reboxetine mesylate hydrate has been used as a selective norepinephrine transport blocker:
  • to study its effects on the surge of dopamine in the cortex of mice brain
  • to study its anti-immobility effects on the behavior of mice
  • to analyze its effects on the probabilistic reversal learning task in rodents

Biochem/physiol Actions

Reboxetine exhibits anti-depressant activity.
Reboxetine mesylate hydrate is a selective noradrenaline uptake inhibitor.

The present study determined whether repeated administration of the antidepressant and selective norepinephrine (NE) uptake inhibitor reboxetine resulted in an adaptive modification of the function of the NE transporters (NETs), serotonin (5-HT) transporters, or dopamine (DA) transporters. Because antidepressants may

MS Binding Assays represent a label-free alternative to radioligand binding assays. In this study, we present an LC-ESI-MS/MS method for the quantification of (R,R)-4-(2-benzhydryloxyethyl)-1-(4-fluorobenzyl)piperidin-3-ol [(R,R)-D-84, (R,R)-1], (S,S)-reboxetine [(S,S)-2], and (S)-citalopram [(S)-3] employed as highly selective nonlabeled reporter ligands in MS
