DescriptionDTG (97-39-2) is an agonist of the sigma (σ) receptor1with roughly equal potency against both subtypes (σ1 and σ2 IC50’s ~ 30nM)2.
UsesDTG is a selective ligand for the sigma-binding site. DTG has high binding affinity.
General Description1,3-Di-o-tolylguanidine is a selective σ-receptor agonist. 1,3-Di-o-tolylguanidine is σ site ligand and its interaction with dopamine drugs were studied in Wistar rats and Albino Swiss mice.
