| Name | Imipramine |
| Description | Imipramine (Dimipressin) is an orally active Fascin1 inhibitor with antidepressant and antitumor activity.Imipramine inhibits the 5-hydroxytryptamine transporter (IC50: 32 nM), induces apoptosis, and induces autophagy in U-87MG glioma cells.Imipramine has neuroprotective and immunomodulatory activities, inhibits TNT, and is used to label brain blood vessels.Imipramine is a neuroprotective and immunomodulatory compound. Imipramine has neuroprotective and immunomodulatory activities, inhibits invasion and migration of TNBC cells, and can be used to study breast cancer and epilepsy. |
| In vitro | In DLD-1, HCT-116, and SW-480 cell lines, Imipramine (0.5-300 μM; 3 days) inhibited cell viability, with HCT-116 being more sensitive to it compared to DLD-1 and SW-480[1]. |
| In vivo | In male C57BL/6 mice (6-8 weeks old) exposed to repeated social defeat (RSD) and home cage control (HCC), Imipramine (20 mg/kg or 15 mg/kg; administered intraperitoneally or orally, daily for 24 days) reversed RSD-induced social avoidance behavior, significantly increasing interaction time, and significantly decreased stress-induced mRNA levels for IL-6 in brain microglia[4]. |
| Storage | Store under nitrogen | Pure form: -20°C for 3 years | In solvent: -80°C for 1 year | Shipping with blue ice/Shipping at ambient temperature. |
