Primes

• Antagonist
  • The formalism shows the structure quantitatively: a competitive antagonist shifts the agonist dose-response curve rightward in parallel without lowering the maximum, because raising agonist concentration can outcompete the blocker for the slot — the diagnostic signature of occupancy rather than destruction.

    This sourceDefines competitive (surmountable) antagonism — a parallel rightward shift of the agonist dose-response curve without depression of the maximum — versus insurmountable antagonism.
