Difference between Receptor antagonist and Sex-hormonal agent

Receptor antagonist vs. Sex-hormonal agent

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. A sex-hormonal agent, also known as a sex-hormone receptor modulator, is a type of hormonal agent which specifically modulates the effects of sex hormones and of their biological targets, the sex hormone receptors.

Similarities between Receptor antagonist and Sex-hormonal agent

Receptor antagonist and Sex-hormonal agent have 4 things in common (in Unionpedia): Agonist, Hormone, Receptor antagonist, Selective receptor modulator.

Agonist

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