protriptyline BiologicalActivity

Description	Protriptyline is a potent antidepressant agent. Protriptyline inhibits AChE activity with IC50 value of 0.06 mM and inhibits Aβ Self-Assembly. Protriptyline can be used for depression and Alzheimers disease[1][2][3].

In Vitro	Protriptyline (0-70 μM; 24 hours; PC3 cells) causes cytotoxicity in PC3 cells[2]. Cell Cytotoxicity Assay[2] Cell Line: PC3 cells Concentration: 50, 60 and 70 μM Incubation Time: 24 hours Result: Decreased cell viability in a concentration-dependent manner.
In Vivo	Protriptyline (10 mg/kg; i.p.; for 21 days; rat model of AD) improves spatial learning and retention memory in STZ treated rats[3]. Animal Model: Rat model of AD[3] Dosage: 10 mg/kg Administration: Intraperitoneal injection; for 21 days. Result: Reduced pTau, Aβ42 and BACE-1 levels, neurodegeneration, oxidative stress and glial activation. Improved p-ERK/ERK ratio and enhanced BDNF and CREB levels by reducing NFκB and GFAP expression.
