Full agonists bind to and activate a receptor with the maximum response that an agonist can elicit at the receptor. One example of a drug that can act as a full agonist is isoproterenol, which mimics the action of adrenaline at β adrenoreceptors. Another example is morphine, which mimics the actions of endorphins at μ-opioid receptors ...
Gamma-aminobutyric acid, a GABA-B receptor agonist. A GABA receptor agonist is a drug that is an agonist for one or more of the GABA receptors, producing typically sedative effects, and may also cause other effects such as anxiolytic, anticonvulsant, and muscle relaxant effects. [1] There are three receptors of the gamma-aminobutyric acid. The ...
Aripiprazole (Abilify) – atypical antipsychotic (non-selective monoamine receptor modulator) [1]; Bupropion/dextromethorphan (AXS-05; Auvelity) – sigma σ 1 receptor agonist, serotonin reuptake inhibitor, norepinephrine and dopamine reuptake inhibitor, nicotinic acetylcholine receptor negative allosteric modulator, ionotropic glutamate NMDA receptor antagonist, other actions, and CYP2D6 ...
Pramipexole is a highly active non-ergot D 2-like receptor agonist with a higher binding affinity to D 3 receptors rather than D 2 or D 4 receptors. The mechanism of action of pramipexole is mostly unknown, it is thought to be involved in the activation of dopamine receptors in the area of the brain where the striatum and the substantia nigra ...
Selective 5-HT 2A receptor agonists like the 25-NB compounds, specifically those which can behave as full agonists at this receptor, can cause serotonin syndrome-like adverse effects such as hyperthermia, hyperpyrexia, tachycardia, hypertension, clonus, seizures, agitation, aggression, and hallucinations which has ended in death on numerous ...
As a result, different GLP-1 agonist drugs are modified in various ways to extend the half-life, resulting in drugs that can be dosed multiple times per day, daily, weekly, or less often. [29] Most synthetic GLP-1 agonists are delivered via subcutaneous injection , which is a barrier to their use and reason for discontinuation. [ 37 ]
Esketamine (Spravato) – non-competitive NMDA receptor antagonist, other actions [13] Gepirone (Exxua) – 5-HT 1A receptor partial agonist and α 2-adrenergic receptor antagonist; Opipramol (Insidon) — σ 1 receptor agonist, other actions; Tianeptine (Stablon, Coaxil, Tianeurax) – weak and atypical μ-opioid receptor agonist, other actions
