receptors

drugs is potent , specific due to high affinity of it to bind with receptors
definitions :
pharmacokinetics : 
what body do to the drug include : absorption , distribution , metabolism , excretion 
pharmacodynamic :
what drug do to body include action , mechanism of action , adverse effect
receptors :
protein macromolecule on the surface of cell that react with specific substance to initiate effect
agonist : 
drug that cause response by interacting with reseptor , has affinity and efficacy
affinity :
ability of agonist ro bind the receptors then form drug receptor complex
efficacy :
ability of drug receptor complex to cause response
antagoinst :
drug compete with agonist by blocking the receptor , has affinity but no efficacy
partial ahonist :
drug have affinity with moderate efficacy 

types of receptors :
1- ligand gates ionic channels :
Fast (millisecond responses) neurotransmitters (e.g.
nicotinic receptors), linked directly to a transmembrane
ion channel.

2- G-protein
 Slower neurotransmitters and hormones (e.g. muscarinic
receptors) linked to an intracellular G-protein (‘GPCR’).

3- tyrosine kinase linked receptors 
insulin receptors) are slower still.

4- receptors that regulate DNA transcription 
intracellular , gene transcription
