Product Data
Biological target:
Dapoxetine (hydrochloride) is an analytical reference standard that is categorized as a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor and provides improvement in several parameters related to premature ejaculation in clinical trials.
In vitro activity:
The purpose of this study was to investigate the therapeutic efficacy of transdermal delivery of DH (Dapoxetine HCl) in transethosome nanovesicles (TENVs). The TENV formulations were assessed for entrapment efficiency (EE-%), vesicle size, zeta potential, in vitro DH release, and skin permeation. The release behavior of DH from DH-TENVs was investigated to confirm whether the DH-TENVs had the ability to release DH in a sustained manner. Rapid DH release from free DH solution in the dialysis bag was observed, with approximately 95% of the DH being released in the first 3 h (Figure S1A–C). In contrast, the DH in DH-TENVs demonstrated a slow and controlled release, with about 53–85% of the DH being released within 8 h (Table 2). The results indicate that DH-TENVs can improve transdermal delivery of DH and thereby alleviate RA.

In vivo activity:
The effects of 8-OH-DPAT and dapoxetine on the sexual behavior of male rats were investigated in this study. Dapoxetine significantly reduced the ejaculation performance at a dose of 60 mg/kg by delaying the latency of mounts and decreasing the latency of ejaculation and post-ejaculatory interval. Significant differences in the gene expression profiles were observed in the EJ (257 genes), DPAT (349 genes) and the DAP (207 genes) compared with the control rats In the present study, Drd4 was significantly upregulated (fold change: 2.42) following dapoxetine treatment whereas no such trend was noted regarding other 5-HT receptor or transporter genes.
