nortriptyline and Degenerative Diseases, Central Nervous System

nortriptyline has been researched along with Degenerative Diseases, Central Nervous System in 2 studies

Nortriptyline: A metabolite of AMITRIPTYLINE that is also used as an antidepressive agent. Nortriptyline is used in major depression, dysthymia, and atypical depressions.
nortriptyline : An organic tricyclic compound that is 10,11-dihydro-5H-dibenzo[a,d][7]annulene substituted by a 3-(methylamino)propylidene group at position 5. It is an active metabolite of amitriptyline.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"This study was to characterize the neuroprotective effects of nortriptyline, a tricyclic antidepressant, in mouse models of chronic neurodegeneration [amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and Huntington's disease (HD)]."3.74Nortriptyline delays disease onset in models of chronic neurodegeneration. ( Cormier, K; Ferrante, RJ; Friedlander, RM; Guan, Y; Huo, C; Kristal, BS; Smith, K; Stavrovskaya, IG; Wang, H; Wang, X; Zhu, S, 2007)
" Findings from in vitro aggregation and kinetics assays support the view that NOR inhibits aggregation of α-syn by directly binding to the soluble, monomeric form, and by enhancing reconfiguration of the monomer, inhibits formation of toxic conformations of the protein."1.46Nortriptyline inhibits aggregation and neurotoxicity of alpha-synuclein by enhancing reconfiguration of the monomeric form. ( Collier, TJ; de Oliveira, P; Dettmer, U; Feany, MB; Grammatopoulous, T; Havas, D; Hutter-Paier, B; Jock, K; Justman, C; Lansbury, P; Lapidus, L; Liu, F; Paumier, KL; Prokesch, M; Rochet, JC; Sortwell, CE; Srivastava, KR; Stirtz, GL, 2017)
