Functional selectivity and desensitisation of G protein-coupled receptors
The existence of functional selectivity at the mu-opioid receptor was examined by determining the efficacy of a range of opioid agonists for promoting G protein activation and arrestin-3 translocation. In general, there is a good correlation between the efficacy of an opioid agonist at promoting G p...
