Definition. An inverse agonist is a molecule that binds to the same site as an agonist and is considered to be a full agonist. However, it elicits the opposite effect to that of a normal agonist, i.e.: demonstrates negative efficacy.n antagonist reduces the effect of an agonist by preventing it from binding to receptors. Both antagonists and inverse agonists reduce the activity if a receptor and, in the presence of an agonist, reduce its activity.
A receptor antagonist is a type of receptor ligand or drug that blocks or dampens agonist-mediated responses rather than provoking a biological response itself upon binding to a receptor. They are sometimes called blockers; examples include alpha blockers, beta blockers, and calcium channel blockers.his property earns them the name non-competitive because their effects cannot be negated, no matter how much agonist is present. In functional assays of non-competitive antagonists, depression of the maximal response of agonist dose-response curves, and in some cases, rightward shifts, is produced.
