receptor
|
macromolecule that interacts with drug, initiating biochem rxns leading to effect
|
|
ligand
|
binds to receptor, ie. drug (aka 1st messenger)
|
|
agonist
|
binds to receptor & MIMICS effect of endogenoid
|
|
antagonist
|
binds to receptor & BLOCKS binding of endogenoid
|
|
partial agonist
|
has less max response than true agonist
|
|
potency
|
QUANTITY of drug to produce desired effect
|
|
efficacy
|
MAX CAPACITY of drug to initiate response when bound
|
|
covalent receptor binding
|
prolonged, irreversible
|
|
noncovalent receptor binding
|
ionic, Hbonds, VDW, reversible
|
|
Desensitization
|
less response to same [drug] bc of continued stimulation, due to less receptors, mech for chronic tolerance
|
|
Supersensitivity
|
after chronic reduction of receptor stimulation, so rebound effect
|
|
competitive antagonism
|
direct competition for 1 binding site, reversible, higher [ ] wins
ex. atropine +Ach Naloxone +morphine |
|
Noncompetitive antagonism
|
antagonist works at diff site but can inactivate response of agonist, irreversible binding
ex. aspirin+cyclooxygenase mecamylamine+nicotine |
|
Chemical antagonism
|
direct chem interaction, agonist inactive, chelation
ex. heparin+protamimne dimercaprol+mercury |
|
Functional/physiological antagonism
|
2 agonist with opposing functions/mech
ex. prednisone+insulin Ach+epinephrine (para vs. sympathetic) |
|
metabolic antagonism
|
2nd compd reduces effects by increasing elimination
phenobarbital+oral anticoagulant antibiotic+oral contraceptive |
|
Additive effect
|
agonists have similar effect that combines to overall greater effect 1+1>2
gemtamicin+tobramycin gemtamicin+furosemide |
|
Potentiation
|
another compd that increases effect of 2nd compound
probenecid+penecillin alcohol+barbiturate |
|
Graded dose response
|
individual, %max response
|
|
Quantal dose response
|
population, %indvls responded
|
|
maximal asymptote
|
efficacy (up/down)
|
|
Potency controlled by
|
receptor density
efficacy of stimulation response of tissue affinity efficacy |
|
more potent
|
takes less drug to have effect, curve to the left
|
|
competitive antagonist curve
|
shift to right
no change in max effect surmountable by greater [ ] max response can be achieved |
|
noncompetitive antagonist curve
|
antagonist at different site can block agonist
not surmountable can't achieve max response |
|
Therapeutic dose
|
LD/ED =margin of safety
greater=safer |
|
TI=40/20=2
|
2x therapeutic dose=toxic
|
