Answer:

The degree in which materials are able to flow freely through a cell's membrane known as permeability.

Explanation:

The permeability of membrane is the rate of passive transport through the membrane. These molecules are known as permeant molecules.The permeability of a cell membrane  are dependent on certain factors such as  polarity, electric charge and molar mass of the molecules which diffuse through the cell membrane. Phenylalanine increases the permeability of membrane. When there is an increase in the temperature it also increases the  permeability of membrane. When there is a water in the cells it will result in water expansion, there will be exertion of pressure on membrane and deformation of the transport proteins so that they will able to control what will enter or leave the cell. Selective permeability of the membrane plays a very significant role in maintaining homeostasis, fluid & electrolyte balance & cellular health.

Based on the definitions of pharmacophore and privileged structure, outline essential structural features a 1,4-dihyrdopyridine
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Pharmacophore (pharmacology) - The molecular framework responsible for a drug's biological activity. According to IUPAC — A pharmacophore is the ensemble of steric and electronic features that is necessary to ensure the optimal supramolecular interactions with a specific biological target structure and to trigger (or to block) its biological response.

Privileged structures are defined as molecular frameworks which are able of providing useful ligands for more than one type of receptor or enzyme target by judicious structural modifications.

1) The 1,4-dihydropyridine ring is present in many biologically important molecules that acts as an important scaffold for cardiovascular drug - a calcium antagonists and although it is technically not considered as a pharmacophore, it is considered as a privileged structure.

1,4-Dihydropyridine (DHP), belongs to the class of calcium antagonist that inhibits the influx of extracellular Ca+2 through the L-type voltage-dependent calcium channels.

A positional substitution in the 4-position is feasible in the heterocyclic ring which in turn culminates in various calcium channel antagonist activities and this heterocyclic ring is the common feature for various pharmacological activities such as anti-inflammatory activity, analgesic activity,

antihypertensive, antianginal, antitumor, antitubercular activity and antithrombotic .

Position on the heterocyclic ring binds to the L-type channel and also to N-type channel on membranes.

2.) The bioisosteres are not a suitable bioisostere for the traditional C-4 aryl or heteroaryl substitution which is necessary for calcium ion blockage thereby inhibiting it to function with the mechanism shared above.
