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)
