Partial agonists in schizophrenia [PDF]
The editorial by Bolonna & Kerwin ([2005][1]) is both timely and important. The authors succinctly present the case for the use of partial agonists of dopamine receptors, concluding that ‘the reviewed evidence suggests a promising future for dopamine receptor partial agonists’.

MPL Adjuvant Contains Competitive Antagonists of Human TLR4
Monophosphoryl lipid A (MPL®) is the first non-alum vaccine adjuvant to achieve widespread clinical and market acceptance, a remarkable achievement given that it is manufactured from a Salmonella enterica endotoxin.

Thiazolidinediones Are Partial Agonists for the Glucocorticoid Receptor [PDF]
Although thiazolidinediones were designed as specific peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-γ-ligands, there is evidence for some off-target effects mediated by a non-PPARγ mechanism. Previously we have shown that rosiglitazone has antiinflammatory actions not explicable by activation of PPARγ,but possibly by the glucocorticoid receptor (GR)

Summary: Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (IP3Rs) are intracellular Ca2+ channels that link extracellular stimuli to Ca2+ signals. Ca2+ release from intracellular stores is “quantal”: low IP3 concentrations rapidly release a fraction of the stores.

Pindolol‐the pharmacology of a partial agonist. [PDF]
1 Pindolol is a non‐selective beta‐adrenoceptor blocking agent; its affinity to adrenoceptors in guinea pig atria (beta 1) is not significantly different from that in guinea pig trachea (beta 1 + beta 2) and canine vascular smooth muscle (beta 2). 2 Pindolol displays a striking diversity of agonist activities in isolated tissues.

Functional Stoichiometry at the Nicotinic Receptor. The Photon Cross Section for Phase 1 Corresponds to Two Bis-Q Molecules per Channel [PDF]
These experiments examine changes in the agonist-induced conductance that occur when the agonist-receptor complex is perturbed. Voltage-clamped Electrophorus electroplaques are exposed to the photoisomerizable agonist trans-Bis-Q A 1-µs laser flash ...

Agonists and Partial Agonists of Rhodopsin: Retinals with Ring Modifications [PDF]
Activation of the visual pigment rhodopsin is initiated by isomerization of its retinal chromophore to the all-trans geometry, which drives the conformation of the protein to the active state. We have examined by FTIR spectroscopy the impact of a series of modifications at the ring of retinal on the activation process and on molecular interactions ...
