  • Drug Action-Receptor Theory
    Drug action-Receptor Theory Molecules (eg, drugs, hormones, neurotransmitters) that bind to a receptor are called ligands. The binding can be specific and reversible. A ligand may activate or inactivate a receptor; activation may increase or decrease a particular cell function. Each ligand may interact with multiple receptor subtypes. Few if any drugs are absolutely specific for one receptor or subtype, but most have relative selectivity. Selectivity is the degree to which a drug acts on a given site relative to other sites; selectivity relates largely to physicochemical binding of the drug to cellular receptors. A drug’s ability to affect a given receptor is related to the drug’s affinity (probability of the drug occupying a receptor at any given instant) and intrinsic efficacy (intrinsic activity—degree to which a ligand activates receptors and leads to cellular response). A drug’s affinity and activity are determined by its chemical structure. The pharmacologic effect is also determined by the duration of time that the drug-receptor complex persists (residence time). The lifetime of the drug-receptor complex is affected by dynamic processes (conformation changes) that control the rate of drug association and dissociation from the target. A longer residence time explains a prolonged pharmacologic effect. Drugs with long residence times include finasteride and darunavir. A longer residence time can be a potential disadvantage when it prolongs a drug's toxicity. For some receptors, transient drug occupancy produces the desired pharmacologic effect, whereas prolonged occupancy causes toxicity. Ability to bind to a receptor is influenced by external factors as well as by intracellular regulatory mechanisms.

Within the oncological field, overexpression of NK1R and this SP/NK1R system have been implicated in cancer cell progression and poor overall prognosis. This review focuses on providing an update on the current state of knowledge around the wide spectrum of NK1R ligands and applications of radioligands as radiopharmaceuticals. In this review, data concerning both the chemical and biological aspects of peptide and nonpeptide ligands as agonists or antagonists in classical and nuclear medicine, are presented and discussed. However, the research presented here is primarily focused on NK1R nonpeptide antagonistic ligands and the potential application of SP/NK1R system in targeted radionuclide tumour therapy. Keywords: neurokinin 1 receptor; Substance P; SP analogues; NK1R antagonists; targeted therapy; radioligands; tumour therapy; PET imaging 1. Introduction Neurokinin 1 receptor (NK1R), also known as tachykinin receptor 1 (TACR1), belongs to the tachykinin receptor subfamily of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), also called seven-transmembrane domain receptors (Figure1)[ 1–3]. The human NK1 receptor structure [4] is available in Protein Data Bank (6E59).

An Abstract of Differential Effects of Dopamine D3 Receptor Antagonists in Modulating ABCG2 - Mediated Multidrug Resistance (MDR) by Noor A. Hussein Submitted to the Graduate Faculty as partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Master of Science in Pharmaceutical Sciences Degree in Pharmacology and Toxicology The University of Toledo May 2017 The G2 subfamily of the ATP-binding cassette transporters (ABCG2), also known as the breast cancer resistance protein (BRCP), is an efflux transporter that plays an important role in protecting the cells against endogenous and exogenous toxic substances. The ABCG2 transporters are also highly expressed in the blood brain barrier (BBB), providing protection against specific toxic compounds. Unfortunately, their overexpression in cancer cells results in the development of multi-drug resistance (MDR), and thus, chemotherapy failure.
