Pharm exam 1 FINAL REVIEW Flashcards
Chiral
something that has chiral center that can rotate around center, has mirror image of itself.
Enantiomer
2 mirror images
e.g. racemic mixtures, may have both compounds present
Isomer
Same chemical formula but different structure
Kd
Drug concentration at which 1/2 of receptors are bound
Low k/d = ?
High drug/receptor affinity
k/d does not equal?
EC50, two different concepts
Receptors can spontaneously
shift into active configuration
Tachyphylaxis
quick tolerance
Conventional hybridoma technology antibodies
Takes cancer protein, inject to mouse, mouse makes antibodies, isolate splenic antibodies, combine with tumor cells, makes the antibodies proliferate.
Purple denotes
human
IND, NDA
Investigational new drug, new drug application
Receptors can be ___ or _____ the cell
inside or outside
Receptors that we dont know what they do
orphan receptors
Inert receptors
Drug carriers, albumin, don’t transmit signal but they hold drug.
What does Albumin, alpha-1 acid glycoprotein, and lipoproteins bind to
Albumin: Acidic
a1-acid: basic
Lipoproteins: neutral drugs
