Description

2-Hydroxy imipramine is a metabolite of imipramine, which is an antidepressant drug that belongs to the tricyclic antidepressant class. It is formed through enzyme hydrolysis by liver microsomes and monoclonal antibodies. 2-Hydroxy imipramine has been shown to have an affinity for the norepinephrine transporter in rat heart cells and human liver cells. The metabolism of 2-hydroxy imipramine can be inhibited by drugs such as chlorpromazine and fluoxetine, which induce hepatic enzymes responsible for the metabolic transformation of this drug. 2-Hydroxy imipramine may also have anti-inflammatory effects on cardiac tissue due to its ability to inhibit the activity of cytochrome P450, which are enzymes that metabolize many drugs in humans.
