Cellular and Molecular Pharmacology explores the molecular mechanisms through which drugs act on cells and biological systems. It focuses on receptor signaling, gene expression, cellular pathways, and drug-receptor interactions. This subject provides a foundation for understanding drug action at the cellular and molecular levels, aiding in the development of targeted therapies.
