Susceptibilities of wild-type, IVM-selected, and MOX-selected C. elegans strains to IVM and MOXd
Treatment | Mean EC50 (nM) ± SD for wild-type Bristol N2 (no. of expts) | IVM-selected strain (IVR10) |
MOX-selected strain |

---|---|---|---|---|---|
Mean EC50 (nM) ± SD (no. of expts) | RF | Mean EC50 (nM) ± SD (no. of expts) | RF | ||
IVM | 1.69 ± 0.30 (9) | 12.43 ± 1.65 (7)a | 7.34 | 12.46 ± 0.96 (8)a | 7.35 |
MOX | 1.77 ± 0.25 (9) | 3.06 ± 0.51 (11)a,b,c | 1.74 | 4.24 ± 0.58 (9)a,b,c | 2.39 |
P < 0.001 versus the wild type.
P < 0.001 versus IVM.
P < 0.001 for IVM-selected versus MOX-selected strains.
The EC50 was calculated from LDA data. RF (resistance factor) is the fold resistance relative to Bristol N2, equal to the EC50 for ML-selected strains/EC50 for N2B. The ratios of the EC50 of IVM to the EC50 of MOX were 0.96 for the Bristol N2 strain, 4.03 for the IVM-selected strain, and 2.94 for the MOX-selected strain.
