Venlafaxine Hydrochloride is a dual ST and SLC6A2 (serotonin and noradrenalin re-uptake) inhibitor that displays ~ 30-fold higher affinity for ST (SERT) (Ki = 82 nm) than SLC6A2 (NET) (Ki = 2480 nM). It exerts minimal effect on other neurotransmitter systems. It is primarily utilized in research focused on neurotransmitter systems due to its interaction with serotonin and norepinephrine transporters. Some research suggests that venlafaxine hydrochloride may have electrophysiological effects on the heart′s fast conducting cells. Research conducted on isolated guinea pig ventricular myocytes demonstrated that venlafaxine hydrochloride inhibits the fast inward sodium current in a concentration-dependent manner, with an estimated IC50 of 8 µM.
