Sigma Receptors and Cocaine Abuse [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Topics in Medicinal Chemistry, 2011
Sigma receptors have been well documented as a protein target for cocaine and have been shown to be involved in the toxic and stimulant actions of cocaine. Strategies to reduce the access of cocaine to sigma receptors have included antisense oligonucleotides to the sigma-1 receptor protein as well as small molecule ligand with affinity for sigma ...

Sigma Receptors in Oncology: Therapeutic and Diagnostic Applications of Sigma Ligands [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Pharmaceutical Design, 2010
Sigma receptors (subtypes sigma-1 and sigma-2) are a unique class of binding sites expressed throughout the mammalian body. The endogenous ligand for these sites has not been identified, but steroid hormones (particularly progesterone), sphingolipid-derived amines and N,N-dimethyltryptamine can bind with fairly high affinity.

Sigma Receptors and Alcohol Use Disorders [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Although extensive research has focused on understanding the neurobiological mechanisms underlying alcohol addiction, pharmacological treatments for alcohol use disorders are very limited and not always effective. This constraint has encouraged the search for novel pharmacological targets for alcoholism therapy.

Sigma Receptors and Substance Use Disorders [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Thanks to advances in neuroscience, addiction is now recognized as a chronic brain disease with genetic, developmental, and cultural components. Drugs of abuse, including alcohol, are able to produce significant neuroplastic changes responsible for the profound disturbances shown by drug addicted individuals.
