Informationen zum Autor Norman G. Bowery Klappentext Offering a wide array of illustrations and tables in every chapter! this book extensively covers the principles of allosterism in reference to drug action and progresses to a detailed examination of individual ionotropic and G-protein coupled receptor systems-helping those new to the subject understand the importance of allosterism and providing those already working in the field with specific reference information. This title provides in-depth chapters on basic principles of allosterism and its significance at GABAA! 5HT3! nicotinic! and GABAB receptors! ionotropic and metabotropic receptors for glutamate! muscarinic receptors and alpha 2 adrenoceptors to provide a firm foundation to the subject.
