This study utilized quantitative receptor autoradiography to examine the effects of repeated administration of antidepressants to rats on the binding of the beta adrenoceptor antagonist, 125I-iodopindolol (125I-IPIN) to either beta-1 or beta-2 adrenoceptors in various regions of brain. Antidepressants were selected to represent various chemical and pharmacological classes including tricyclic compounds (desipramine and protriptyline), monoamine oxidase inhibitors (clorgyline, phenelzine and tranylcypromine), atypical antidepressants (mianserin and trazodone) and selective inhibitors of the uptake of serotonin (citalopram and sertraline). Additionally, rats were treated with various psychotropic drugs that lack antidepressant efficacy (cocaine, deprenyl, diazepam and haloperidol).

A comprehensive method is presented for the determination of nine antidepressant drugs and metabolites in serum: (1) amitriptyline, (2) nortriptyline, (3) imipramine, (4) desipramine, (5) maprotiline, (6) doxepin, (7) desmethyldoxepin, (8) protriptyline, and (9) trimipramine. Chlorimipramine is used as the internal standard. A simple solid-phase extraction procedure utilizing disposable reversed-phase C18 columns is described.
