G Flashcards
What is propranolol
a non- selective beta adrenoceptor blocker, useful antihypertensive agents by reducing cardiac output and vascular resistance
What is verapamil
a calcium channel blocker that reduce blood pressure but do not cause bronchoconstriction
T or F
For a drug to produce its biological effects it must bind to a receptor
true
Most of the receptors are located on the cell surface or sometimes where?
nucleus/cytoplasm
Examples of drug receptors that consist of proteins that would normally serve as receptors for endogenous regukatory ligands
Epi, NE, ACH
T or F
All receptor are present in the cell membrane
False, not all
Target of drug action:
atenolol-
receptor
Beta Receptor
Target of drug action:
amlodipine-
Ion Channels
Calcium Channels
Target of drug action:
ramipril-
Enzymes ACE
inhibits angiotensin Converting Enzyme
Target of drug action:
Bendroflumethiazide (thiazides)-
Transporters (NaCl transporters
specifically block at the distal convoluted tubule
Receptor State :
Inactive state->Active State
Agonist
Receptor State :
Do NOT increases the fraction of the active state May Stabilize the receptor in the inactive state
Antagonist
Receptor State :
Inactive State -> Active State but bot reaching 100 %
Partial Agonist
T or F
In reversible equilibrium it favors more the inactive state
True beh
Drug that bind to physiological receptors and mimic the regulatory effects of the endogenous signaling compound/ ligand
Agonist
