| Targets |
Not applicable. Desmethylene paroxetine hydrochloride is a drug metabolite, not a pharmacologically active drug itself. Its "target" is related to its formation pathway: it is produced from paroxetine (a serotonin reuptake inhibitor) through enzymatic transformation. However, the metabolite itself does not necessarily retain the serotonin reuptake inhibition activity of the parent drug. It is used as an analytical standard, not as a modulator of biological targets.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
Desmethylene paroxetine hydrochloride is a non-conjugated catechol metabolite of the potent and selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) paroxetine, which has a Ki of 0.72 nM for the serotonin transporter (SERT). While the parent compound paroxetine is highly potent at inhibiting serotonin reuptake, the specific in vitro activity of the desmethylene metabolite has not been characterized and it may or may not retain significant SERT inhibition. It is identified as the major urinary metabolite of paroxetine.
|
| ln Vivo |
No specific in vivo data for Desmethylene paroxetine hydrochloride as an administered compound is available. The in vivo activity described is that of the parent drug paroxetine, which is used for the treatment of depression and anxiety disorders. The desmethylene metabolite is formed in vivo following paroxetine administration and is excreted in urine, where it can be measured for toxicological and pharmacokinetic studies. It is not itself administered to produce a pharmacological effect.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
Not applicable. Desmethylene paroxetine hydrochloride is a drug metabolite analytical standard. A typical protocol for its quantification in biological samples involves sample preparation (urine or plasma), optionally with enzymatic hydrolysis to deconjugate glucuronidated metabolites, followed by solid-phase extraction (SPE). The extracted sample is analyzed by LC-MS/MS using multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) with a deuterated internal standard (e.g., paroxetine-d6). Calibration curves are prepared from spiked blank matrix standards.
|
| Cell Assay |
Not applicable. Desmethylene paroxetine hydrochloride is an analytical standard, not a compound used in cell-based assays as a pharmacological agent. It is used as a reference material to validate LC-MS/MS methods for measuring paroxetine and its metabolites in biological samples from clinical or toxicological studies. The compound itself does not have any known cellular activity that would warrant its direct testing in cell culture systems.
|
| Animal Protocol |
Not applicable. Desmethylene paroxetine hydrochloride is a metabolite standard used for analytical chemistry applications. It is not administered to animals for in vivo efficacy studies as a drug. It is, however, measured in biological samples from animals or humans that have been administered the parent drug paroxetine. Typical animal PK studies involve administering paroxetine to rodents and collecting urine, plasma, and tissue samples for metabolite quantification by LC-MS/MS.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
No specific PK data for Desmethylene paroxetine hydrochloride as an administered compound is available. The pharmacokinetics of the metabolite are determined following parent drug (paroxetine) administration. Paroxetine is extensively metabolized in the liver primarily by CYP2D6. Desmethylene paroxetine is a major urinary metabolite. The half-life of paroxetine is approximately 21 hours in extensive metabolizers. The metabolite's appearance in urine reflects the metabolic clearance of the parent drug.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
No toxicity data was found for Desmethylene paroxetine hydrochloride. The safety profile of the parent drug paroxetine is well-established: it is generally well-tolerated but can cause side effects including nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, sexual dysfunction, and weight gain. The metabolite is not associated with specific toxicity. As an analytical standard, it is handled in small quantities with standard laboratory safety precautions.
