摘要
Chronic exposure to agonist (or conditions that increase the synaptic concentration of the natural transmitter, such as blockade of inactivation mechanisms) results in a downregulation of the target receptor. Conversely, chronic exposure to antagonist (or conditions that decrease the synaptic concentration of transmitter, including denervation) produces an upregulation of receptors. © 1990.
