[3] OLD Chapter 2 Pharmacodynamics Flashcards
(132 cards)
Actions/ effects of the drug on the body
Pharmacodynamics
Specific molecules in a biologic system with which drugs interact to produce changes in the function of the system
Receptors
Determine the quantitative relations between dose or concentration of drug and pharmacologic effects
Receptors
Receptors: _______ in choosing a drug molecule to bind to avoid constant activation by promiscuous binding of many different molecules
Selective
Receptors: Selective in _______ characteristics (respond to proper chemical signals and not to meaningless ones)
ligand-binding
Receptors mediate the actions of both pharmacologic _____ and ________
agonist and antagonist
Specific binding region of the macromolecule
Receptor Site
High and selective affinity to the drug molecule
Receptor Site
Interaction between the drug and the receptor is the fundamental event that initiates the action of the drug
Receptor Site
What are the 4 Classification of Receptors
- Regulatory proteins
- Enzymes
- Transport proteins
- Structural protein
Classification of receptors:
Subserve specific physiologic functions
Regulatory proteins
Classification of receptors:
Catalyzes/facilitates metabolic processes
Enzymes
Classification of receptors:
Usually in the cell membrane, the raw materials of our metabolism is needed to be transported into the cell because we metabolize inside the cell
Transport protein
Classification of receptors:
Cytoskeleton of framework, cellular anatomy
Structural proteins
What is the best characterized drug receptor
Regulatory proteins
[they produce overt observable effects]
Inhibited (or less commonly, activates) by binding a drug
Enzymes
The membrane receptor for digitalis
Transport proteins
This is the receptor for colchine, an anti-inflammatory drug used for gout
Structural proteins
Molecules that translate the drug-receptor interaction into a change in cellular activity
Effector
A single molecule may incorporate both the drug binding site and the effector mechanism
Effector
Crossing the plasma membrane and acts on intracellular receptors
Lipid soluble drug
Intracellular enzymatic activity is regulated by a ligand that binds to the proteins extracellular domain
Transmembrane receptor protein
______ binds and stimulates a protein tyrosine kinase
Transmembrane receptor
Regulates the opening of the ion channel
Ligand-gated transmembrane ion channel
