Receptors for neurotransmitters and related substances.
Advances in techniques for cloning neurotransmitter receptors have revealed new targets for selective drug design. Cell systems for more efficient expression of cloned receptor genes have also been developed. Knowledge of the nature of ligand-binding sites is now becoming available and this should aid in the design of better drugs with fewer side effects.
