Atoxifent
Atoxifent is a potent μ-opioid receptor agonist (EC50=0.39 nM) . These receptors are found in brain regions that control pain, emotions, habitual learning, and cognition. Atoxifent exhibits strong analgesic effects and a lower risk of respiratory depression. Atoxifent can be used for research in opioid pharmacology and signal transduction[1].
