Active metabolite
An active metabolite is an active form of a drug after it has been processed by the body.
New!!: Norfenfluramine and Active metabolite · See more »
Agonist
An agonist is a chemical that binds to a receptor and activates the receptor to produce a biological response.
New!!: Norfenfluramine and Agonist · See more »
Anorectic
An anorectic or anorexic is a drug which reduces appetite, resulting in lower food consumption, leading to weight loss.
New!!: Norfenfluramine and Anorectic · See more »
Benfluorex
Benfluorex is an anorectic and hypolipidemic agent that is structurally related to fenfluramine patented and manufactured by a French pharmaceutical company Servier.

Cardiac fibrosis
Cardiac fibrosis may refer to an abnormal thickening of the heart valves due to inappropriate proliferation of cardiac fibroblasts but more commonly refers to the excess deposition of extracellular matrix in the cardiac muscle.

Drug
A drug is any substance (other than food that provides nutritional support) that, when inhaled, injected, smoked, consumed, absorbed via a patch on the skin, or dissolved under the tongue causes a temporary physiological (and often psychological) change in the body.

Fenfluramine
Fenfluramine, formerly sold under the brand name Pondimin among others, is an appetite suppressant which was used to treat obesity and is now no longer marketed.

Fibroblast
A fibroblast is a type of biological cell that synthesizes the extracellular matrix and collagen, the structural framework (stroma) for animal tissues, and plays a critical role in wound healing.
New!!: Norfenfluramine and Fibroblast · See more »
Flucetorex
Flucetorex (INN) is an amphetamine which was investigated as an anorectic but does not appear to have ever been marketed.
New!!: Norfenfluramine and Flucetorex · See more »
Heart
The heart is a muscular organ in most animals, which pumps blood through the blood vessels of the circulatory system.
New!!: Norfenfluramine and Heart · See more »
Heart valve
A heart valve normally allows blood to flow in only one direction through the heart.
New!!: Norfenfluramine and Heart valve · See more »
Monoamine releasing agent
A monoamine releasing agent (MRA), or simply monoamine releaser, is a drug that induces the release of a monoamine neurotransmitter from the presynaptic neuron into the synapse, leading to an increase in the extracellular concentrations of the neurotransmitter.
New!!: Norfenfluramine and Monoamine releasing agent · See more »
Norepinephrine
Norepinephrine (NE), also called noradrenaline (NA) or noradrenalin, is an organic chemical in the catecholamine family that functions in the brain and body as a hormone and neurotransmitter.
New!!: Norfenfluramine and Norepinephrine · See more »
Potency (pharmacology)
In the field of pharmacology, potency is a measure of drug activity expressed in terms of the amount required to produce an effect of given intensity.
New!!: Norfenfluramine and Potency (pharmacology) · See more »
Serotonin
Serotonin or 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) is a monoamine neurotransmitter.
New!!: Norfenfluramine and Serotonin · See more »
Side effect
In medicine, a side effect is an effect, whether therapeutic or adverse, that is secondary to the one intended; although the term is predominantly employed to describe adverse effects, it can also apply to beneficial, but unintended, consequences of the use of a drug.
New!!: Norfenfluramine and Side effect · See more »
Substituted amphetamine
Substituted amphetamines are a class of compounds based upon the amphetamine structure; it includes all derivative compounds which are formed by replacing, or substituting, one or more hydrogen atoms in the amphetamine core structure with substituents.

TAAR1
Trace amine-associated receptor 1 (TAAR1) is a trace amine-associated receptor (TAAR) protein that in humans is encoded by the TAAR1 gene.
New!!: Norfenfluramine and TAAR1 · See more »
Tricuspid valve
The tricuspid valve, or right atrioventricular valve, is on the right dorsal side of the mammalian heart, between the right atrium and the right ventricle.
New!!: Norfenfluramine and Tricuspid valve · See more »
5-HT2A receptor
The mammalian 5-HT2A receptor is a subtype of the 5-HT2 receptor that belongs to the serotonin receptor family and is a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR).
New!!: Norfenfluramine and 5-HT2A receptor · See more »
5-HT2B receptor
5-Hydroxytryptamine receptor 2B (5-HT2B) also known as serotonin receptor 2B is a protein that in humans is encoded by the HTR2B gene.
New!!: Norfenfluramine and 5-HT2B receptor · See more »
5-HT2C receptor
The 5-HT2C receptor is a subtype of 5-HT receptor that binds the endogenous neurotransmitter serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT).
