Difference between Opipramol and Sigma-2 receptor

Opipramol vs. Sigma-2 receptor

Opipramol, sold under the brand name Insidon among others, is an anxiolytic and antidepressant which is used throughout Europe. The sigma-2 receptor (σ2R) is a sigma receptor subtype that has been found highly expressed in malignant cancer cells, and is currently under investigation for its potential diagnostic and therapeutic uses.

Similarities between Opipramol and Sigma-2 receptor

Opipramol and Sigma-2 receptor have 13 things in common (in Unionpedia): Agonist, Antipsychotic, Dopamine, Endoplasmic reticulum, Ligand (biochemistry), Liver, Neurotransmitter, NMDA receptor, Norepinephrine, Progesterone, Serotonin, Sigma receptor, Sigma-1 receptor.

Agonist

An agonist is a chemical that binds to a receptor and activates the receptor to produce a biological response.
