Receptors and drugs

Types of Physiologic and Drug-Receptor Proteins). Activated receptors Molecules (eg, drugs, hormones, neurotransmitters) that bind to a receptor are called

Cholinergic drug acetylcholine receptor agonists muscarine (muscarinic receptors); pilocarpine (M3 receptors); nicotine (nicotinic receptors)

GABA-A Receptor Antagonists Receptors, GABA-A / chemistry Receptors, GABA-A / drug effects

Receptor-mediated drug effects involve two distinct processes: binding, which is the formation of the drug-receptor complex, and receptor activation, which moderates the effect. The term affinity describes the tendency of a drug to bind to a receptor; efficacy (sometimes called intrinsic activity) describes the ability of the drug-receptor

drugs) that are capable of 'ligating' themselves to the receptor Formation of the drug-receptor complex is usually reversible and the proportion of receptors

drugs binding to receptors without resulting in receptor activation are called antagonists. drugs binding to receptors and resulting in activation are called.
