UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007649 Ketamine A cyclohexanone derivative used for induction of anesthesia. Its mechanism of action is not well understood, but ketamine can block NMDA receptors (RECEPTORS, N-METHYL-D-ASPARTATE) and may interact with sigma receptors. 2-(2-Chlorophenyl)-2-(methylamino)cyclohexanone,CI-581,Calipsol,Calypsol,Kalipsol,Ketalar,Ketamine Hydrochloride,Ketanest,Ketaset,CI 581,CI581
D010622 Phencyclidine A hallucinogen formerly used as a veterinary anesthetic, and briefly as a general anesthetic for humans. Phencyclidine is similar to KETAMINE in structure and in many of its effects. Like ketamine, it can produce a dissociative state. It exerts its pharmacological action through inhibition of NMDA receptors (RECEPTORS, N-METHYL-D-ASPARTATE). As a drug of abuse, it is known as PCP and Angel Dust. 1-(1-Phenylcyclohexyl)piperidine,Angel Dust,CL-395,GP-121,Phencyclidine Hydrobromide,Phencyclidine Hydrochloride,Sernyl,Serylan,CL 395,CL395,Dust, Angel,GP 121,GP121
D001792 Blood Platelets Non-nucleated disk-shaped cells formed in the megakaryocyte and found in the blood of all mammals. They are mainly involved in blood coagulation. Platelets,Thrombocytes,Blood Platelet,Platelet,Platelet, Blood,Platelets, Blood,Thrombocyte
D005473 Fluoxetine The first highly specific serotonin uptake inhibitor. It is used as an antidepressant and often has a more acceptable side-effects profile than traditional antidepressants. Fluoxetin,Fluoxetine Hydrochloride,Lilly-110140,N-Methyl-gamma-(4-(trifluoromethyl)phenoxy)benzenepropanamine,Prozac,Sarafem,Lilly 110140,Lilly110140
D006801 Humans Members of the species Homo sapiens. Homo sapiens,Man (Taxonomy),Human,Man, Modern,Modern Man
D000662 Amphetamines Analogs or derivatives of AMPHETAMINE. Many are sympathomimetics and central nervous system stimulators causing excitation, vasopressin, bronchodilation, and to varying degrees, anorexia, analepsis, nasal decongestion, and some smooth muscle relaxation.
D012701 Serotonin A biochemical messenger and regulator, synthesized from the essential amino acid L-TRYPTOPHAN. In humans it is found primarily in the central nervous system, gastrointestinal tract, and blood platelets. Serotonin mediates several important physiological functions including neurotransmission, gastrointestinal motility, hemostasis, and cardiovascular integrity. Multiple receptor families (RECEPTORS, SEROTONIN) explain the broad physiological actions and distribution of this biochemical mediator. 5-HT,5-Hydroxytryptamine,3-(2-Aminoethyl)-1H-indol-5-ol,Enteramine,Hippophaine,Hydroxytryptamine,5 Hydroxytryptamine
D012702 Serotonin Antagonists Drugs that bind to but do not activate serotonin receptors, thereby blocking the actions of serotonin or SEROTONIN RECEPTOR AGONISTS. 5-HT Antagonist,5-HT Antagonists,5-Hydroxytryptamine Antagonist,5-Hydroxytryptamine Antagonists,Antiserotonergic Agent,Antiserotonergic Agents,Serotonin Antagonist,Serotonin Blockader,Serotonin Blockaders,Serotonin Receptor Antagonist,Serotonin Receptor Blocker,Antagonists, 5-HT,Antagonists, 5-Hydroxytryptamine,Antagonists, Serotonin,Serotonin Receptor Antagonists,Serotonin Receptor Blockers,5 HT Antagonist,5 HT Antagonists,5 Hydroxytryptamine Antagonist,5 Hydroxytryptamine Antagonists,Agent, Antiserotonergic,Agents, Antiserotonergic,Antagonist, 5-HT,Antagonist, 5-Hydroxytryptamine,Antagonist, Serotonin,Antagonist, Serotonin Receptor,Antagonists, 5 HT,Antagonists, 5 Hydroxytryptamine,Antagonists, Serotonin Receptor,Blockader, Serotonin,Blockaders, Serotonin,Blocker, Serotonin Receptor,Blockers, Serotonin Receptor,Receptor Antagonist, Serotonin,Receptor Antagonists, Serotonin,Receptor Blocker, Serotonin,Receptor Blockers, Serotonin
