Receptor Regulation

Problems and Perspectives

  • Chapter
Mechanisms of Receptor Regulation

Part of the book series: New Horizons in Therapeutics ((NHTH))

Abstract

It is now well accepted that the interaction of ligands, especially peptide hormones, with their surface receptor is the initial step in a chain of events that leads to subsequent biological responses. Therefore, the regulation of surface receptors is crucial as a control point for these responses. Current investigation of hormone action must focus, in part, on regulation of receptors, which goes beyond the simple binding studies of the past decade or more that opened the field to further exploration.
