JNJ-7925476

JNJ-7925476 is a triple reuptake inhibitor that selectively and potently inhibits the activity of the serotonin transporter (SERT), norepinephrine transporter (NET), and dopamine transporter (DAT) . JNJ-7925476 is rapidly absorbed into the blood and its concentration in the brain is 7-fold higher than that in plasma. The occupancy ED (50) values of JNJ-7925476 for SERT, NET, and DAT in the rat brain are 0.18, 0.09, and 2.4 mg/kg, respectively. JNJ-7925476 rapidly induces a significant increase in the levels of extracellular serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine in the rat cerebral cortex in a dose-dependent manner. JNJ-7925476 exhibits potent antidepressant-like activity in the mouse tail suspension test. These results suggest that JNJ-7925476 has in vivo efficacy in biochemical and behavioral models of depression[1].
