Term
John Langley
Definition
-isolated muscle fibers
-2 compounds competing for a 3rd but unknown substrate
Term
Paul Ehrilich
Definition
-microbiologist
-1st receptor
-stereoselectivity
-lock and key
Term
binding properties of receptors
Definition
-Drug Specificity
-Reversibility
-Stereoselectivity
-Saturability
-Tissue Specificity
Term
failure to satisfy binding properties indicates
Definition
non-specific binding
Term
ligand
Definition
-chemicals that bind to receptors
Term
affinity
Definition
-how well a ligand binds a receptor
-NOTHING to do with what effect a ligand has
-Kd measures
Term
efficacy
Definition
ability of a bound drug to change receptor in a way that produces an effect
Term
potency
Definition
-at low concentration a ligand produces an effect
Term
Kd
Definition
-concentration of drug where 50% of receptors are complexed with drug
-inversely related to affinity
-directly related to side effects?
Term
R0
Definition
total receptors
Term
LR
Definition
drug receptor complex
Term
agonist
Definition
-drug that occupies and activates a receptor, producing a cellular response
-possess both affinity and efficacy
Term
antagonist
Definition
drug that occupies a receptor and prevents an agonist or endogenous compound from binding
Term
full agonist
Definition
maximal efficacy
Term
partial agonist
Definition
-less than maximal efficacy
Term
100% occupancy does not equal
Definition
100% response
Term
types of antagonism
Definition
-receptor antagonists
-physiological antagonists
-chemical antagonists
Term
receptor antagonist
Definition
-binds but does not activate
Term
physiological antagonist
Definition
-drug that binds to a different receptor
-produces an opposite effect of drug of interest
-has efficacy at a different receptor
Term
chemical antagonist
Definition
-interacts directly with the drug
-removes it or prevents it from binding
-does not depend on interaction with drug's receptor
Term
occupation theory
Definition
-Clark
-effect produced is proportional to number of receptors occupied
Term
modified occupation theory
Definition
-Ariens
-intrinsic activity (alpha) determines effect produced by the drug
-(good agonists=1)
Term
rate theory
Definition
-Paton
-effect is determined by rate of association/dissociation
-dissociate rapidly=potent
Term
two state model
Definition
-receptor exist in a resting and active state
-inverse agonists bind to resting form and decrease number of active receptors
