If you're starting a new article, you can develop it here until it's ready to go live. If you're working on improvements to an existing article, copy only one section at a time of the article to this sandbox to work on, and be sure to use an edit summary linking to the article you copied from. Do not copy over the entire article. You can find additional instructions here. Remember to save your work regularly using the "Publish page" button. (It just means 'save'; it will still be in the sandbox.) You can add bold formatting to your additions to differentiate them from existing content. |

Mechanisms of Action[edit]
Article body[edit]
Like Agonists, inverse agonists have their own unique ways of inducing pharmacological and physiological responses depending on many factors, such as the type of inverse agonist, the type of receptor, mutants of receptors, binding affinities and whether the effects are exerted acutely or chronically based on receptor population density.[1] Because of this, they exhibit a spectrum of activity below the Intrinsic activity level.[1][2] Changes in constitutive activity of receptors affect response levels from ligands like inverse agonists.[3]
To illustrate, mechanistic models have been made for how inverse agonists induce their responses on G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). Many types of Inverse agonists for GPCRs have been shown to exhibit the following conventionally accepted mechanism.
Based on the Extended Ternary complex model, the mechanism contends that inverse agonists switch the receptor from an active state to an inactive state by undergoing conformational changes.[4] Under this model, current thinking is that the GPCRs can exist in a continuum of active and inactive states when no ligand is present.[4] Inverse agonists stabilize the inactive states, thereby suppressing agonist-independent activity.[4] However, the implementation of 'constitutively active mutants'[4] of GPCRs change their intrinsic activity.[1][2] Thus, the effect an inverse agonist has an a receptor depends on the the basal activity of the receptor, assuming the inverse agonist has the same binding affinity (as shown in the figure 2.
