Abstract excerpt
This chapter describes a method to quantify biased signaling effects of agonists; this approach can furnish a scale for medicinal chemists to optimize biased profiles. Biased ligands have different pharmacological properties on a molecular level (stabilization of different receptor active states) and thus can have different pharmacological profiles therapeutically. The calculation of transduction ratios...
