Abstract:
In vitro experiments performed on an isolated human endothelial HUVEC cell culture showed that the anxiolytic fabomotizole, which, in addition to the anxiolytic effect, has neuroprotective and cardioprotective activities largely associated with its agonistic action on sigma-1 receptors and shows a pronounced angiogenic activity. Fabomotizole angiogenic activity is realized in the range concentration from 10-5 to 10-8 M and is doze-dependent. In the literature, data on the presence of angiogenic activity in sigma receptor agonists have not been previously reported.

Primary Types of Anxiolytic Drugs
1. Benzodiazepines:
Benzodiazepines bind to the GABA-A receptor in the brain, enhancing GABA's interaction. This action reduces neurotransmission, effectively blocking anxiety-associated limbic...

Sedatives and Hypnotics Drugs: Miscellaneous Agents
Melatonin congeners like ramelteon (Rozerem) and tasimelteon (Hetlioz) selectively bind to melatonin receptors (MT1 and MT2) and thus mimic the actions of melatonin, a hormone that regulates sleep-wake cycles. Tasimelteon is primarily used for non-24-hour sleep-wake disorder, common in blind patients. They are also used to treat conditions like insomnia...
