Figure 5. Correlation between the reactivation potencies (log EC50, ordinate) and affinities (log Ki, abscissa) of competitive antagonists at the h5-HT7 receptor.
The high correlation observed (r2=0.95) indicates that the reactivation of risperidone-inactivated h5-HT7 receptors is due to the binding of the reactivating drugs to the orthosteric binding site of the h5-HT7 receptor despite the presence of wash-resistant risperidone bound to the orthosteric site. These results are from (Teitler et al., 2010) and are the mean±S.E.M. of three experiments performed in triplicate.
