What is a drug receptor?
The macromolecules known as receptors play a role in chemical signalling within and between cells.
- They can be found on the cell surface membrane or in the cytoplasm (see table Some Types of Physiologic and Drug-Receptor Proteins).
- Receptor activation controls cellular biochemical processes directly or indirectly (eg, ion conductance, protein phosphorylation, DNA transcription, enzymatic activity).
The term "ligand" refers to a molecule that binds to a receptor, such as medication, hormone, or neurotransmitter.
- The binding may be reversible and particular.
- A receptor can be activated or inactivated by a ligand; activation can change how well cell functions.
- Each ligand may interact with different subtypes of receptors.
- Few, if any, medications exhibit 100% selectivity for a single receptor or subtype, but the majority do.
