  • a Reports the functional activity of the compound, where known. From studies of binding activity only, the activity is stated as unknown.

  • b Affinity/Efficacy values are based on direct (Kd) or competition (IC50) binding assays (where available) or EC50 values based on functional dose responses. In some reports, only a single dose (or limited doses) is used in functional assays, and that value (or a range for the EC50) is provided (*). Where quantitation of a dose response is not provided, the estimated value (or range) is provided (∼). None detected, indicates binding assays have been performed and no binding was detected. In vivo dosing, indicates that only functional animal studies have been carried out. >, < and > >, indicate that the half maximal response was not achieved at the indicated concentration (> indicates some effect at indicated concentration but less than 50%; > > indicates substantially less than 50% effect at stated concentration; < indicates that similar effects were observed at all doses tested and therefore it is presumed that the EC50 is below the lowest dose reported).

  • c Indicates whether the reported value is derived from a binding assay (B), functional assay (F), or has been assessed with both (B/F), with the binding constant being provided in the previous column.
