From what I understand, Agomelatine has an effect as a result of a blockade on the 5HT2c receptor subtype, disinhibiting NA and DA release.
The Ki value associated with this antagonism is Ki=631nM.
Which, from my untrained eye, does not suggest a huge degree of potency.
Bupropion seemingly acts as a NA and DA reuptake inhibitor.
I couldn't find any information on its actual binding profile - cause wiki didn't have it.
Where else can I access binding profiles??
Anyways, I'm just comparing alternative noradrenergic AD's with Bupropion, and am curious about this particular comparison.
Anyone familiar with it?
The other potential option is Reboxetine, which has a NA reuptake binding value of Ki 13.4, which does appear quite potent, to my untrained eye.
The other curious point of consequence is that, the FDA did not license either of these for distribution in the US....?
