Tonix Pharmaceuticals Announces the Isolation and Characterization of the (S)-Isomer of Tianeptine, TNX-4300 (Estianeptine), Now Under Development for Psychiatric and Neurodegenerative Diseases

Retrieved on: 
Tuesday, May 23, 2023

CHATHAM, N.J., May 23, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Tonix Pharmaceuticals Holding Corp. (Nasdaq: TNXP) (Tonix or the Company), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company, today announced the isolation and functional characterization of the two mirror image isomers of racemic tianeptine, which is marketed outside the U.S. as a treatment for major depressive disorder (MDD). Tonix scientists discovered that the (S)-isomer of tianeptine activates PPAR-β/δ, restores neuroplasticity in neuronal tissue culture and is free of µ-opioid receptor activity. In contrast, (R)-tianeptine activates the µ-opioid receptor and lacks PPAR-β/δ activity. Based on these discoveries, Tonix has begun preclinical development of the (S)-isomer, TNX-4300 (estianeptine)*, as a treatment for MDD, bipolar disorder, Alzheimer’s disease, and Parkinson’s disease. Tonix is planning to submit data supporting tianeptine’s mechanism of action for presentation at upcoming scientific conferences and for publication in peer reviewed journals.

Key Points: 
  • Tonix scientists discovered that the (S)-isomer of tianeptine activates PPAR-β/δ, restores neuroplasticity in neuronal tissue culture and is free of µ-opioid receptor activity.
  • In contrast, (R)-tianeptine activates the µ-opioid receptor and lacks PPAR-β/δ activity.
