pKD values for 12 antagonists as determined from measurements of CRE-SPAP production from CHO-H3-cells made in the presence of the 12 different agonists. Values represent mean ± s.e.mean of n separate experiments. The pKD values quoted are for antagonism of the first component of the impentamine response.

* it was not possible to determine a pKD value for VUF 5681 in the presence of impentamine due to the partial agonist nature of both responses.
