Roles Classification
Chemical Roles:
environmental contaminant  Any minor or unwanted substance introduced into the environment that can have undesired effects.
Bronsted base  A molecular entity capable of accepting a hydron from a donor (Brønsted acid).
Biological Roles:
xenobiotic  A xenobiotic (Greek, xenos "foreign"; bios "life") is a compound that is foreign to a living organism. Principal xenobiotics include: drugs, carcinogens and various compounds that have been introduced into the environment by artificial means.
analgesic  An agent capable of relieving pain without the loss of consciousness or without producing anaesthesia. In addition, analgesic is a role played by a compound which is exhibited by a capability to cause a reduction of pain symptoms.
beta-adrenergic agonist  An agent that selectively binds to and activates β-adrenergic receptors.
Applications:
bronchodilator agent  An agent that causes an increase in the expansion of a bronchus or bronchial tubes.
antidepressant  Antidepressants are mood-stimulating drugs used primarily in the treatment of affective disorders and related conditions.
antifibrotic agent  Any agent which acts to reduce fibrosis.
antitussive  An agent that suppresses cough. Antitussives have a central or a peripheral action on the cough reflex, or a combination of both. Compare with expectorants, which are considered to increase the volume of secretions in the respiratory tract, so facilitating their removal by ciliary action and coughing, and mucolytics, which decrease the viscosity of mucus, facilitating its removal by ciliary action and expectoration.
anti-asthmatic agent  Any compound that has anti-asthmatic effects.
antihypertensive agent  Any drug used in the treatment of acute or chronic vascular hypertension regardless of pharmacological mechanism.
antispasmodic drug  A drug that suppresses spasms. These are usually caused by smooth muscle contraction, especially in tubular organs. The effect is to prevent spasms of the stomach, intestine or urinary bladder.
hypoglycemic agent  A drug which lowers the blood glucose level.
antidote to organophosphate poisoning  A role borne by a molecule that acts to counteract or neutralise the deleterious effects of organophosphates or acetylcholinesterase inhibitors (nerve agents).
cardiovascular drug  A drug that affects the rate or intensity of cardiac contraction, blood vessel diameter or blood volume.
analgesic  An agent capable of relieving pain without the loss of consciousness or without producing anaesthesia. In addition, analgesic is a role played by a compound which is exhibited by a capability to cause a reduction of pain symptoms.
beta-adrenergic agonist  An agent that selectively binds to and activates β-adrenergic receptors.
