Module 1 Receptors And Genetics Flashcards
Ligand
Molecule or ion that has specific functions causing a biological response
Allows change inside the cell or transmit a signal
Receptors Types
Intracellular receptors
1) Steriods
Cell Surface receptors
1) ligand gated ion channels - fast
2) g protein coupled - slow
3) receptors tyrosine kinases
Ligand Gated Ion Channels
Lock and key
Neurotransmitters
Ion binding enzyme or voltage channels to exchange, release, or store to produce a response
G-Protein Coupled Receptors
- transmit signals
GTP active or GDP inactive - any disruption of GPCR = DISEASE
- Has 3 subunits: alpha, beta, gamma
Receptor Tyrosine Kinase RTK
- Enzyme linked to transfer amino acids
- Responsible for growth factor, platelet derived growth factor (wound healing, nerve growth)
- Overgrowth of factors = CANCER
Agonist
Activates
Natural or synthetic
Full and partial
Inverse Agonist
Opposite expected effect
Anatagonist
Inactivates / BLOCKs action of other meds
Usually reversible
Pharmokinetics
Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism, Elimination
Movement
Pharmacodynamics
What the drug does to the body
Up regulation
Missing ligand the cell will make more receptors
Down regulation
Increase stimulation by a ligand the cell will decrease number of receptors for the specific ligand
Acetylcholice
Fast neurotransmittors is what structure receotor type?
Ligand gated ion chanel
Slow transmission norepinephrine is what receptor structure type?
G Protein Coupled Receptors
Insulin growth factor is what structure type of receptor
Enzyme-linked receptor
Steriod hormones and thyroid hormone is what structure receptor type?
Nuclear receptors
Alpha receptors subtypes a1 a2
a1: vascular smooth muscle, GU smooth muscle, liver and post synaptic in CNS
a2: pancreatic islet B cells, platelets, nerve terminals, CNS. vascular smooth muscle, pre and post synaptic
cAMP
Cyclic adenosine mknophosphate
Second messenger that mediates biological responses
Presynaptic Alpha 2 are g-protein linked receptors
Inhibits release of norepinephrine
Negative feedback system for norepinephrine release
a1 vascular agonist
Dopamine, phenylephrine, methoxamine
Alpha 1 : Gq
Vasocontriction: Smooth muscle contraction
GU: Urinary retention
LIVER: Glycogenolysis= ⬆️glucose⬇️ renin
Postsynaptic CNS: excitation, pupil dilation
Alpha 1 Agonist: Phenylephrine*
Alpha 2 (GI) : Adrenergic Receptor
⬇️cAMP: hyperpolarization ⬇️ intracellular Ca2+
Presynaptic: ⬇️ NE release, ⬇️ HR,
Postsynaptic: Vasocontriction and platelet clusters
Pancreas B cells: ⬇️insulin ⬆️ glucose
Alpha 2 Agonist: Clonidine
Beta 1 : Adrenergic Receptor
⬆️cAMP = ⬆️Ca2
HEART: ⬆️ HR ⬆️ Contractility
KIDNEY: ⬆️ Renin ⬆️ BP
Beta 1 AGONIST: DOBUTAMINE
Beta 2: Andrenergic Receptor (Gs)
⬆️cAMP ⬆️Ca2+
LUNGS: Bronchodilaton
VASCULAR: Vasodilation
GI/GU: ⬇️ GI motility and inhibtion of labor
Beta 2 Agonist : Albuterol, Salmetrol
