| Roles Classification |
|---|
| Biological Roles: | nicotinic acetylcholine receptor agonist An agonist that selectively binds to and activates a nicotinic acetylcholine receptor. neurotoxin A poison that interferes with the functions of the nervous system. teratogenic agent A role played by a chemical compound in biological systems with adverse consequences in embryo developments, leading to birth defects, embryo death or altered development, growth retardation and functional defect. mitogen A chemical substance that encourages a cell to commence cell division, triggering mitosis. immunomodulator Biologically active substance whose activity affects or plays a role in the functioning of the immune system. |
| Applications: | nicotinic acetylcholine receptor agonist An agonist that selectively binds to and activates a nicotinic acetylcholine receptor. psychotropic drug A loosely defined grouping of drugs that have effects on psychological function. peripheral nervous system drug A drug that acts principally at one or more sites within the peripheral neuroeffector systems, the autonomic system, and motor nerve-skeletal system. biomarker A substance used as an indicator of a biological state. anxiolytic drug Anxiolytic drugs are agents that alleviate anxiety, tension, and anxiety disorders, promote sedation, and have a calming effect without affecting clarity of consciousness or neurologic conditions. immunomodulator Biologically active substance whose activity affects or plays a role in the functioning of the immune system. |
