MN553 Unit 2 Exam Questions with Correct Answers| Latest Update Guaranteed Success
Drug receptors Usually proteins. How is the body effected by protein
Ion channel receptors Rapid onset and short duration such as nicotine and gaba
G proteins Proteins that cross the cell membrane- creates a pocket where drugs can interact
Transmembrane receptors Extracellular hormone binding domain that phosphorylated the
amino acid tyrosine- insulin receptors
Intracellular receptors Regulating gene expression- lipid soluble hormones that can pass
through the cell membrane and bind to intracellular receptors (thyroid)
Enzymes Biological molecules that encourage chemical reactions (antibiotics)
To work medications have to bind to A protein or a enzyme
Agonist/ full agonist Drugs the produce receptor stimulation and a conformational change
every time they bind. Do not need all available receptors to produce a maximum response
(example opiates)
Antagonist Drugs that occupy receptor without stimulating them. Occupy the receptor site
and prevent other molecules from occupation of the same sits. Example- beta blocker
Partial agonists Properties of agonist and antagonists example buprenorphine
Pharmacokinetics The branch of pharmacology that deals with absorption distribution
metabolism and excretion of drugs
