描述
Sertraline Hydrochloride is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) widely studied for its role in modulating serotonin levels in the brain. This product is designed for neuropharmacology, behavioral neuroscience, and psychotropic drug evaluation in laboratory environments.
Used extensively in preclinical models of major depressive disorder (MDD), generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), panic disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), Sertraline offers consistent oral bioavailability and reliable CNS penetration, making it a preferred agent in mental health research.

Mechanism of Action
Sertraline selectively inhibits the reuptake of serotonin (5-HT) at the presynaptic neuronal membrane, enhancing serotonin levels in the synaptic cleft. It does not significantly affect norepinephrine or dopamine reuptake, making it a clean SSRI option in comparative drug models.
Research Applications
-
Depression Models: Widely used in chronic mild stress (CMS) models to reverse depressive behavior.
-
Anxiety & PTSD: Reduces startle response and increases exploratory behavior in rodent PTSD models.
-
Behavioral Pharmacology: Helps assess 5-HT receptor subtype interactions, SSRIs vs. SNRIs, and placebo control mechanisms.
-
Neuroendocrine Studies: Examines HPA axis modulation and cortisol suppression in stress response.
Safety & Handling Guidelines
-
Common lab observations: Mild sedation, weight variation, reduced food intake in rodent models.
-
Rare reactions: Seizure threshold alterations at very high doses.
-
Handling: Use PPE and sterile tools during capsule opening or compound extraction.
-
Storage: Dry, room temperature; avoid humidity and light exposure.
