Difference between 5-HT3 receptor and Metoclopramide

5-HT3 receptor vs. Metoclopramide

The 5-HT3 receptor belongs to the Cys-loop superfamily of ligand-gated ion channels (LGICs) and therefore differs structurally and functionally from all other 5-HT receptors (5-hydroxytryptamine, or serotonin) receptors which are G protein-coupled receptors. Metoclopramide is a medication used mostly for stomach and esophageal problems.

Similarities between 5-HT3 receptor and Metoclopramide

5-HT3 receptor and Metoclopramide have 9 things in common (in Unionpedia): Antipsychotic, Central nervous system, Chemotherapy, Duodenum, Mosapride, Receptor antagonist, Stomach, Vomiting, 5-HT4 receptor.

Antipsychotic

Antipsychotics, also known as neuroleptics or major tranquilizers, are a class of medication primarily used to manage psychosis (including delusions, hallucinations, paranoia or disordered thought), principally in schizophrenia and bipolar disorder.

Chemotherapy

Chemotherapy (often abbreviated to chemo and sometimes CTX or CTx) is a type of cancer treatment that uses one or more anti-cancer drugs (chemotherapeutic agents) as part of a standardized chemotherapy regimen.

Mosapride

Mosapride is a gastroprokinetic agent that acts as a selective 5HT4 agonist.

Receptor antagonist

A receptor antagonist is a type of receptor ligand or drug that blocks or dampens a biological response by binding to and blocking a receptor rather than activating it like an agonist.

Stomach

The stomach (from ancient Greek στόμαχος, stomachos, stoma means mouth) is a muscular, hollow organ in the gastrointestinal tract of humans and many other animals, including several invertebrates.

Vomiting

Vomiting, also known as emesis, puking, barfing, throwing up, among other terms, is the involuntary, forceful expulsion of the contents of one's stomach through the mouth and sometimes the nose.
