what is a graded response curve
|
experiment on one person or cells that measures dose on x axis and response on y axis
|
|
what is Kd
|
binding constant of drug
|
|
what is a probit plot
|
a dose-response curve using a log scale that makes the best fit line for dose response data
|
|
what is Emax
|
efficacy; maximum response achieved by agonist
|
|
what is ED50
|
potency: drug concentration at which 50% of Emax is achieved
|
|
what is one reason for partial agonist weaker response compared to full agonist
|
maybe it doesn't cause as much signal transduction.
|
|
what do partial agonist curves look like for dose response compared to full agonists
|
less potency and less efficacy
|
|
what is a quantal response
|
you look at all or nothing response in a whole bunch of people. x axis has dose. y axis has number of people affected. normal distribution typical
|
|
what is therapeutic index
|
LD50/ED50. bigger TI = safer
|
|
|
|
|
what are the three types of ion channel effects can drugs have
|
hit the ligand site to open up the channel (e.g GABA-gated Cl channel), blocker, modulator (don't bind to site of typical ligand, can keep channel open longer, can change the channel's affinity for its receptor)
|
|
how does Kd relate to drug potency
|
Kd is a measure of affinity. different ligands have different Kd and this affects drug potency
|
|
intrinsic activity
|
measure of ability of bound drug to activate the receptor. distinguishes agonist from antagonist
|
|
what are four different types of receptors
|
1. channel-linked receptors (ionotropic)
2. G-protein coupled receptors (metabotropic) 3. kinase-linked receptors 4. receptors linked to gene transcription (nuclear receptors) |
|
what is the time course for effectiveness of these different receptors.
|
1. channel-linked receptors (ionotropic): ms
2. G-protein coupled receptors (metabotropic): seconds 3. kinase-linked receptors: minutes 4. receptors linked to gene transcription (nuclear receptors): hours |
|
what affect do channel-linked receptors have
|
hyperpolarization or depolarization
|
|
what effect do GPCR have
|
G protein can act on PM ion channels to change excitability. G protein can act on PM protein. membrane protein then acts on second messengers. these second messengers can cause Ca2+ release, protein phosphorylation, or other things to occur
|
|
what type of receptor is a Nicotinic ACh receptor
|
channel-linked receptor (ionotropic)
|
|
what type of receptor is muscarinic ACh receptor
|
GPCR
|
|
what are the different membrane target enzymes for GPCR
|
guanylate cyclase (cGMP), adenylate cyclase (cAMP), phospholipase C (IP3 = Ca release and DAG = PKC), phospholipase A2 (AA)
|
|
Gs does
|
activates Ca2+ channels, activates adenylyl cyclase
|
|
Gi does
|
activates K+ channels, inhibits adenylyl cylcase
|
|
Go does
|
inhibits Ca2+ channels
|
|
Gq aka G11 does
|
activates phospholipase C
|
|
G12/13
|
diverse ion transporter interactions
|
|
mechanism of B1 and B2 adrenergic receptors
|
Gs, activate Ca2+ channels and adenylyl cyclase (which makes cAMP which activates protein kinase A and Ca2+ channel opens. PKA phosphorylates target proteins)
|
|
mechanism of alpha 2 adrenergic receptors
|
Gi, activate K+ channels and inhibit adenylyl cyclase (which makes cAMP which activates protein kinase A and Ca2+ channel opens. PKA phosphorylates target proteins)
|
|
mechanism of muscarinic m2/m4 cholinergic receptors
|
Gi, activate K+ channels and inhibit adenylyl cyclase (which makes cAMP which activates protein kinase A and Ca2+ channel opens. PKA phosphorylates target proteins)
|
|
what are M1, M3, and M5 signal transduction pathways
|
Gq/G11. activate PLC (increase IP3 and DAG which increase Ca2+ and PkC). depolarization (increase EPsP) activate PLD2. activate PLA2 (increase arachidonic acid)
|
|
what are M2/M4 signalling pathways
|
Gi/Go. inhibit Ad Cyl (decrease cAMP). activate K_ channels, inhibit Ca2+ channels. hyperpolarization and inhibition
|
|
what is the nicotonic receptor signaling pathway
|
once ACh binds they let in Na+ and let out K+
|
|
what do alpha 1 receptors do
|
Gs that activates PLC (increase IP3 and DAG which increase Ca2+ and PkC)
|
