1 In a cell culture system, we demonstrated that fluvoxamine, but not sertraline or paroxetine, significantly potentiated nerve-growth factor (NGF)-induced neurite outgrowth in PC12 cells, and that the effect of fluvoxamine on NGF-induced neurite outgrowth was significantly antagonized by treatment with the selective sigma-1 receptor antagonist NE-100.

2 Moreover, a recent study using the specific sigma-1 receptor ligand [(11)C] SA4503 and positron emission tomography (PET) have demonstrated that an oral administration of fluvoxamine, but not paroxetine, could bind to sigma-1 receptors in the healthy human brain, in a dose-dependent manner.
