15
Q

Potency

A

Location of curve on x-axis
Closer to y, more potent
Decreased EC50

16
Q

Efficacy

A

Maximal height of curve
Emax
Drug occupies all receptors, no response to higher dose of drug

17
Q

Therapeutic index

A

Measure of drug’s saftety
Large value = wider window/margin

18
Q

Agonist

A

Can be drug or endogenous

19
Q

Full agonist

A

Activates receptor with max efficacy
Stabilizes receptor

20
Q

Partial agonist

A

Activates receptor but not max efficacy (less efficacious)
Can bind to same receptor

21
Q

Inverse agonist

A

Inactivates constitutively active receptor
Acts in absence of agonist

22
Q

Antagonist

A

Binds to allosteric site (change conformation to prevent binding of agonist) or active site (prevent binding of agonist)

23
Q

Competitive antagonist

A

Decreases agonist potency
Binds reversibly to active
Can be overcome by increasing [agonist]
Agonist must be present

24
Q

Noncompetitive active site agonist

A

Reduces efficacy
Binds irreversibly to active site (can’t be outcompeted)

25
Q

Noncompetitive allosteric antagonist

A

Reduces efficacy
Does not bind active site
Prevents conformation change/activation

26
Q

Nonreceptor antagonist

A

Inhibits agonist but doesn’t affect same receptor
Can be chemical or physiologic (insulin and glucagon)

27
Q

Nicotinic ACh receptor

A

Ligand gated ion channel, allows sodium influx for muscle contraction
