Sigma Receptor

Sigma receptor ligands bind sigma-1 and sigma-2 receptors, two unrelated proteins that are not G protein-coupled. The sigma-1 receptor was cloned in 1996 and resembles a yeast sterol isomerase more than any known mammalian receptor. It resides mainly in the endoplasmic reticulum, and its 2016 crystal structure showed a trimer with one transmembrane helix per protomer. The gene for the sigma-2 receptor was identified in 2017 as transmembrane protein 97 (TMEM97). Cutamesine (SA4503) dihydrochloride, 4-IBP and pentoxyverine citrate are sigma-1 agonists, whereas S1RA and BD-1047 2HBr are sigma-1 antagonists. Siramesine is a sigma-2 agonist, and UMB24 a sigma-2 antagonist.

    Sigma-2 Radioligand 2

    Sigma-2 Radioligand 2 selectively targets the sigma-2 receptor with a low nanomolar affinity (Ki(σ2) = 2.30 nM) and exhibits significant subtype selectivity (Ki(σ1)/Ki(σ2) > 1500). This compound is essential for research applications involving sigma receptor pharmacology, allowing for in-depth studies of receptor function and potential therapeutic implications in neuropsychiatric disorders.

    σ1 Receptor antagonist 4

    σ1 Receptor Antagonist 4 is a selective antagonist targeting the sigma1 (σ1) receptor, exhibiting a Ki value of 10 nM. This compound shows weak activity at the sigma2 (σ2) receptor with a Ki of 370 nM and demonstrates no significant effects on dopamine (DAT), serotonin (SERT), or norepinephrine (NET) transporters. σ1 Receptor Antagonist 4 is primarily utilized in research to elucidate the role of the σ1 receptor in various biological processes and its potential implications in neurodegenerative diseases and psychiatric disorders.
