Sigma Receptor

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.

The sigma-1 receptor (σ1R) is an endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-resident chaperone protein that acts like an inter-organelle signaling modulator. It participates in many biological processes including nociception, cancer, stroke, memory, drug addiction, cardiac activity, and Alzheimer’s disease. The sigma-2 (σ2R) receptor is overexpressed in various human tumors. It has been validated as a biomarker for proliferating tumors.

    PB28 dihydrochloride (Standard)
    Modulator
    PB28 dihydrochloride (Standard) is the analytical standard of PB28 (dihydrochloride) (HY-108511). This product is intended for research and analytical applications. PB28 dihydrochloride, a cyclohexylpiperazine derivative, is a high affinity and selective sigma 2 (σ2) receptor agonist with a Ki of 0.68 nM. PB28 dihydrochloride is also a σ1 antagonist with a Ki of 0.38 nM. PB28 dihydrochloride is less affinity for other receptors. PB28 dihydrochloride inhibits electrically evoked twitch in guinea pig bladder and ileum with EC50 values of 2.62 μM and 3.96 μM, respectively. PB28 dihydrochloride can modulate SARS-CoV-2-human protein-protein interaction. PB28 dihydrochloride induces caspase-independent apoptosis and has antitumor activity.

    SV119 hydrochloride
    Ligand
    SV119 hydrochloride is a sigma-2 ligand with a Ki value of 5.2 nM. SV119 hydrochloride enhances the efficient transport of drugs across the plasma membrane of cancer cells. The conjugation of dm-Erastin with SV119 hydrochloride successfully overcomes the internalization barrier observed in pancreatic cancer, while preserving the inherent anti-tumor activity of Erastin (HY-15763). Additionally, SV119 hydrochloride demonstrates cytotoxic effects on triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) cells and induces apoptosis.
