Ligand binding affinity (pIC50) were measured on intact COS-7 cells transfected with wild type and mutant receptors by competition binding using 125I-His5-D-Tyr6-GnRH1.

B max = % of total radioligand bound were expressed relative to wild type receptor without NBI-42902.

nb

No measurable binding.

Values are mean ± SEM of three or more independent experiments, converted to nM (in parentheses).

Significant difference of NBI-42902 treatment on B max is represented by an asterisk * (p<0.05).
