Difference between Κ-opioid receptor and Hallucination

Κ-opioid receptor vs. Hallucination

The κ-opioid receptor (KOR) is a G protein-coupled receptor that in humans is encoded by the OPRK1 gene. A hallucination is a perception in the absence of external stimulus that has qualities of real perception.

Similarities between Κ-opioid receptor and Hallucination

Κ-opioid receptor and Hallucination have 26 things in common (in Unionpedia): Bipolar disorder, Cyclazocine, Cyclorphan, Dissociative, Dopamine, Epileptic seizure, Hallucinogen, Hippocampus, Insular cortex, Δ-opioid receptor, Levorphanol, Locus coeruleus, Lysergic acid diethylamide, Major depressive disorder, Morphinan, Morphine, Nociception, Norepinephrine, Opioid, Oxycodone, Parabrachial nuclei, Pentazocine, Psilocybin, Psychoactive drug, Raphe nuclei, Substantia nigra.

Bipolar disorder

Bipolar disorder, previously known as manic depression, is a mental disorder that causes periods of depression and periods of abnormally elevated mood.

Hippocampus

The hippocampus (named after its resemblance to the seahorse, from the Greek ἱππόκαμπος, "seahorse" from ἵππος hippos, "horse" and κάμπος kampos, "sea monster") is a major component of the brains of humans and other vertebrates.
