Further, another important mechanism is that fluoxetine (sigma-1 receptor, Ki=191.2 nM) and as fluvoxamine (sigma-1 receptor, Ki=17.0 nM), are endoplasmic reticulum-derived sigma-1 receptor agonists, which is known to inhibit cytokine production; thereby mitigating inflammation by decreasing tumor necrosis factor (TNF-α) and is protective against clinical deterioration in sepsis (Roumestanet al., 2007;Hashimoto, 2015;Köhleret al., 2018;Rosenet al., 2019;Sukhatmeet al., 2021). Here, TNF is linked to Sepsis.
