Response
k-1
Rate of association = k1[D][R] ← proportional to both [D] and [R]
Rate of dissociation = k-1[DR] ← proportional to [DR] only
At steady state, rate of association = rate of dissociation
k1[D][R] = k-1[DR]

Relationship between Drug Concentration and
Response or Receptor Occupancy
D+R
Drug concentration at which drug
effect (response) is half-maximal =

DR
Response
Drug concentration at which receptor-bound
drug (receptor occupancy) is half-maximal =

Relationship between Kd and
Receptor Occupancy
Receptor occupancy = fraction of total receptors (RT) occupied by
drug (aka fractional saturation) = [DR]/[RT]

More Definitions
Mixed antagonist: binds to separate site but modulates the ability of agonist to bind
Physiological antagonist: a drug (or endogenous mediator) that antagonizes the effect
of another drug (or endogenous mediator) by producing an opposing physiological
response, typically by a different type of receptor.
Example: epinephrine acting at β1 receptors physiologically opposes the decrease
in heart rate that occurs in response to acetylcholine acting at M2 receptors
Reversible antagonist: reversible binding
Irreversible antagonist: irreversible binding (law of mass action not followed)
Allosteric activator: binds to site independent of agonist binding site and enhances
activity of agonist
Allosteric inhibitor: binds to site independent of agonist binding site and reduces
activity of agonist
Receptor Desensitization
Response decreases with time and/or repetitive stimulation
Potency and Efficacy
Potency refers to the dose that causes a given effect
most potent = lowest EC50
least potent = highest EC50
Efficacy refers to the maximum response (effect)
most efficacious = largest response
least efficacious = smallest response
