Similarities between Agonist and Ligand (biochemistry)
Agonist and Ligand (biochemistry) have 5 things in common (in Unionpedia): Inverse agonist, Ligand, Neurotransmitter, Receptor (biochemistry), Receptor antagonist.
Inverse agonist
In the field of pharmacology, an inverse agonist is an agent that binds to the same receptor as an agonist but induces a pharmacological response opposite to that agonist.

Receptor antagonist
A receptor antagonist is a type of receptor ligand or drug that blocks or dampens a biological response by binding to and blocking a receptor rather than activating it like an agonist.
