Agonists

Agonist lipids are a type of lipid molecule that can bind to and activate a specific type of receptor called a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR). These lipids can initiate cellular signaling pathways that can result in diverse physiological responses such as hormone secretion, smooth muscle contraction, and inflammation. Examples of agonist lipids include prostaglandins, leukotrienes, and thromboxanes. These lipids are important in various biological processes such as inflammation, pain, and fever, and can also be targeted for therapeutic purposes.
