'Partial' competition of heterobivalent ligand binding may be mistaken for allosteric interactions: a comparison of different target interaction models (2014)
Journal Article
Vauquelin, G., Hall, D., & Charlton, S. (2015). 'Partial' competition of heterobivalent ligand binding may be mistaken for allosteric interactions: a comparison of different target interaction models. British Journal of Pharmacology, 172(9), 2300-2315. https://doi.org/10.1111/bph.13053

© 2014 The British Pharmacological Society. Background and Purpose Non-competitive drugs that confer allosteric modulation of orthosteric ligand binding are of increasing interest as therapeutic agents. Sought-after advantages include a ceiling level...

Observed drug-receptor association rates are governed by membrane affinity: The importance of establishing "micro-pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic relationships" at the ?2-adrenoceptor (2014)
Journal Article
Sykes, D. A., Parry, C., Reilly, J., Wright, P., Fairhurst, R. A., & Charlton, S. J. (2014). Observed drug-receptor association rates are governed by membrane affinity: The importance of establishing "micro-pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic relationships" at the ?2-adrenoceptor. Molecular Pharmacology, 85(4), 608-617. https://doi.org/10.1124/mol.113.090209

Current pharmacological models for determining affinity and kinetics of drugs for membrane receptors assume the interacting molecules are homogeneously distributed in the bulk aqueous phase. The phospholipid membrane can, however, provide a second co...
