Roles Classification
Chemical Role(s): antioxidant
A substance that opposes oxidation or inhibits reactions brought about by dioxygen or peroxides.
Bronsted base
A molecular entity capable of accepting a hydron from a donor (Bronsted acid).
(via organic amino compound )
Biological Role(s): serotonergic agonist
An agent that has an affinity for serotonin receptors and is able to mimic the effects of serotonin by stimulating the physiologic activity at the cell receptors. Serotonin agonists are used as antidepressants, anxiolytics, and in the treatment of migraine disorders.
human metabolite
Any mammalian metabolite produced during a metabolic reaction in humans (Homo sapiens).
mouse metabolite
Any mammalian metabolite produced during a metabolic reaction in a mouse (Mus musculus).
5-hydroxytryptamine 2A receptor agonist
An agonist at the 5-hydroxytryptamine 2A (5-HT2A) receptor.
5-hydroxytryptamine 2B receptor agonist
An agonist at the 5-hydroxytryptamine 2B (5-HT2B) receptor.
5-hydroxytryptamine 2C receptor agonist
An agonist at the 5-hydroxytryptamine 2B (5-HT2C) receptor.
Application(s): serotonergic agonist
An agent that has an affinity for serotonin receptors and is able to mimic the effects of serotonin by stimulating the physiologic activity at the cell receptors. Serotonin agonists are used as antidepressants, anxiolytics, and in the treatment of migraine disorders.
radiation protective agent
Any compound that is able to protect normal cells from the damage caused by radiation therapy.
neuroprotective agent
Any compound that can be used for the treatment of neurodegenerative disorders.
cardioprotective agent
Any protective agent that is able to prevent damage to the heart.
