Description:
Principles of medicinal chemistry. Receptors and drug action:drug-receptor interactions, ion channels, G-protein-coupled receptors, nuclear receptors, protein kinases, intracellular receptors for gene transcription regulation, antibacterial inhibitors of protein synthesis, enzymes as drug targets. Strategies in drug discovery: natural product as a source for new drugs, existing drugs as a basis for new drugs, disease models as screens for new drugs, rational approach in drug design, bioisosterism, prodrugs.
Development of the most effective drugs. Inhibitors of prostaglandin synthetase: analgetics and antiinflamatorics, inhibitors of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE): antihipertensive agents, calcium chanel blockers, drugs for the treatment of angina and hypertension, antagonists of histamine receptors (H2) as anti-ulcer drugs, proton pump inhibitors and gastric acid secretion inhibitors, antidepressants based on serotonine modifications, ligands for benzodiazepine receptors: hypnotic, anxiolytic, anticonvulsant and muscle relaxant agents, antagonists of histamine receptors (H1): drugs for the treatment of allergic rhinitis, nucleoside analogues inhibitors of HIV reverse transcriptase as drugs for the treatment of AIDS, fluoroquinolones as antibacterial DNA gyrase inhibitors
