Is the sigma-1 receptor a potential pharmacological target for cardiac pathologies? A systematic review

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cardiology: Heart & Vasculature, 2020
Sigma-1 receptors are ligand-regulated chaperone proteins, involved in several cellular mechanisms. The aim of this systematic review was to examine the effects that the sigma-1 receptor has on the cardiovascular system.

Biochemical Pharmacology of the Sigma-1 Receptor [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Pharmacology, 2016
The sigma-1 receptor (S1R) is a 223 amino acid two transmembrane (TM) pass protein. It is a non-ATP-binding nonglycosylated ligand-regulated molecular chaperone of unknown three-dimensional structure. The S1R is resident to eukaryotic mitochondrial-associated endoplasmic reticulum and plasma membranes with broad functions that regulate cellular calcium

The endogenic neurosteroid system and its role in the pathogenesis and therapy of mental disorders

open access: yesResearch Results in Pharmacology, 2023
Introduction: Although neurosteroids have been relatively recently discovered, their significant role in the neurochemical processes and pathogenesis of a number of psychiatric and neurological disorders is now quite clear.

TMEM97 and PGRMC1 do not mediate sigma-2 ligand-induced cell death [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Sigma-2 receptors have been implicated in both tumor proliferation and neurodegenerative diseases. Recently the sigma-2 receptor was identified as transmembrane protein 97 (TMEM97).

SIGMAR1/Sigma-1 receptor ablation impairs autophagosome clearance [PDF]

open access: yesAutophagy, 2019
Autophagosome-lysosome fusion is a common critical step in various forms of macroautophagy/autophagy including mitophagy, the selective degradation of mitochondria. Regulations of this fusion process remain poorly defined. Here we have determined the role of SIGMAR1, a unique endoplasmic reticulum membrane protein.

Sigma-1 Receptor Plays a Negative Modulation on N-type Calcium Channel

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2017
The sigma-1 receptor is a 223 amino acids molecular chaperone with a single transmembrane domain. It is resident to eukaryotic mitochondrial-associated endoplasmic reticulum and plasma membranes.

Regulating ankyrin dynamics: Roles of sigma-1 receptors [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2001
Ankyrin is a cytoskeletal adaptor protein that controls important cellular functions, including Ca 2+ efflux at inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (IP 3 R) on the endoplasmic reticulum. The present study found that sigma-1 receptors (Sig-1R), unique endoplasmic reticulum proteins that

Sigma-1 receptor: The novel intracellular target of neuropsychotherapeutic drugs

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2015
Sigma-1 receptor ligands have been long expected to serve as drugs for treatment of human diseases such as neurodegenerative disorders, depression, idiopathic pain, drug abuse, and cancer.
