## Abstract Agonistโselective signaling or ligandโbiased signaling of G proteinโcoupled receptor (GPCR) has become the focus of an increasing number of laboratories. The principle of this concept is that agonist possesses different abilities to activate different signaling pathways. Current review
Signaling through G-protein coupled receptors is one of the most prevalent and important methods of transmitting information to the inside of cells. Many mathematical models have been proposed to describe this type of signal transduction, and the ternary complex (ligand/receptor/G-protein) model and
A modified concept of functioning of G-protein coupled receptors is presented, on the assumption that agonistic and antagonistic effects of drugs are related to their interaction with two separate receptor sites that exist simultaneously on a single receptor molecule and possess different ligand-spe
