Prelim Chapter 2 Drug Receptor and Pharmacodynamics Flashcards
(84 cards)
the component of a cell or organism that interacts with a drug and initiates the chain of events leading to the drug’s observed effects
Receptor
describes the actions of a drug on the body and the influence of drug concentrations on the magnitude of the response
Pharmacodynamics
Most receptors are made up of——
Protein
Drugs bind to them and then after binding there will be a series of events physiological events, then there will be effect or response
Receptor
Macromolecular Nature of Drug Receptors
Note: we have alot of receptors inside the body, most of them made up of protein, some are lipids, nucleic acid. But we really have different types of receptors in our body and their effects
Original substance in the body that bind to that specific receptor
Ligands
•Their ligands are presently unknown
•May prove useful targets for the development of new drugs.
ORPHAN RECEPTORS
Receptor that is manufactured itself by our body
Endogenous receptor
•mediate the actions of endogenous chemical signals such as neurotransmitters, autacoids and hormones.
REGULATORY PROTEINS
Once the drug bind sa mga protein na ni, there will be endogenous resposes, physiological responses sa body
Regulatory protein
These are all chemical messengers in the body, they carry certain message inside the body, they carry it going to the different organs , now they reach the certain organs in our body, they will elicit thier pharmacologic action
- neurotransmitter
-autocoids
-hormones
These are produce by pur neurons/nerve cells
Neurotransmitter
Neurotransmitter
Ex.
Norepinephrine
GABA
Acetycholine
Glutamate
Dopamine
…..
Local mediator, produce by our cells after a release, they will produce a response, after release by the cell automatic naa na dayon ilang receptor then mag react na dayon sila
Autocoids
Ex. Histamine
Note: Neurotransmitter and Hormones they will travel all over your body just to cause and effect
…..
These are produce by our glands
Hormones
Ex.
Insulin- pancrease
Epinephrine - adrenal medulla
Oxytocin- love hormones
Serotonin-happy hormones
•also identified as drug receptors
•may be inhibited or activated by binding a drug
•Ex: dihydrofolate reductase for methotrexate
ENZYMES
— its function in the body is to speed up chemical processess/speed up chemical reaction/speed up metabolism
Enzymes
Enzymes example
dihydrofolate reductase for methotrexate
Enzyme: Dihydrofolate reductase(enzyme needed for cell division)
Drug: methotrexate(anti cancer drug)
Moa: Inhibits rhe cell division and ,ultiple of our cancer cells
….
-considered as drug receptor
-its function is to transport of chemical from one part of the body to another
•Ex: Na+/K+ ATPase - membrane receptor for digitalis glycosides
TRANSPORT PROTEINS
Board exam Questions:
Is Na+/K+ ATPase a enzyme or not?
Noo.😝😂,Na+/K+ ATPase is not an enzyme, but a transport protein or a pump
Note: For Heart Failure drug : Digoxin, Brand: Lanoxin
…
- These are protein original function is for cell structure
-they contribute to the formation of certain structure in the body
-they can also be a receptor, target by our drug
•Ex: Tubulin - receptor for colchicine
STRUCTURAL PROTEINS
Drug for gout
Cholchicine
