explains why: Orthosteric antagonism  blocks the receptor completely via steric hindrance, unlike partial allosteric Common misconceptions  arise when irreversible binding, receptor reserve, or allosteric effects mimic And through historical context, he explains how the classic models of Schild and Gaddum  continue to inform modern analysis, while also highlighting the need for contemporary curve-fitting methods in a post-linear  GPCR research is accelerating—and the projects that succeed will be those built on clear, accurate models
