| Abstract |
Paroxetine is the most potent and one of the most specific serotonin uptake inhibitors. High-affinity 3H-paroxetine and 3H-imipramine binding was compared in rat neuronal membranes. The KD value for 3H-paroxetine binding to neuronal membranes was 0.08 nM, which is exactly the same value as with platelet membranes. The KD value for 3H-imipramine binding to neuronal membranes was about 4 nM, which is higher than the KD value for 3H-imipramine binding to platelet membranes (0.5 nM). The results indicated that the 3H-paroxetine binding site is identical in neuronal membranes and in platelet membranes; this binding site is probably located on the serotonin transport mechanism. In addition, part of the high-affinity 3H-imipramine binding to neuronal membranes is probably located on the serotonin transport mechanism, but another part is located elsewhere. Furthermore the polypeptides containing the 3H-imipramine binding sites may not be identical in neuronal and platelet membranes. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 01 January 2023.
All research outputs
#7,717,448
of 23,467,261 outputs
Outputs from Psychopharmacology
#2,148
of 5,410 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#2,957
of 10,746 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Psychopharmacology
#4
of 8 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,467,261 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 44th percentile – i.e., 44% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 5,410 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 10.7. This one is in the 28th percentile – i.e., 28% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 10,746 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 8th percentile – i.e., 8% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 8 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than 4 of them.
