Abbreviations: h, human; HEK293, human embryonic kidney cells; COS M-6, Green monkey kidney cells; CHO. Chinese hamster ovary cells. The Ki values were determined from [3H]agonist displacement assays. The EC50 determined from intracellular changes in IP3, cAMP, [Ca2+] or the indicated physiological changes. NA= no activity. a) Ki determined from the displacement of [3H]SQ29548; b) IC50 estimated from a graph of agonist vs. [3H]SQ29548 and the Ki value calculated using Cheng-Prusoff equation (Suganami et al. 2016); c) IC50 estimated from graph of agonist vs. [3H]S-145 and the Ki value calculated using Cheng-Prusoff equation; d) Ki determined from the displacement of [3H]S-145; e) Ki determined from the displacement of [3H]U46619; f) Ki calculated from reported IC50 of agonist vs [3H]SQ29548 using Cheng-Prusoff equation; g) Ki for high binding site calculated from IC50 of agonist vs. [125I]-BOP using Cheng-Prusoff equation; h) EC50 determined from IP3 generation; i) EC50 determined from cAMP generation determined from titration curves; j) EC50 determined from % maximal contraction of vein ring segments; k) EC50 determined from % maximal contraction of lung parenchymal strip; l) EC50 determined from % maximal contraction of bronchiolar ring segments; m) EC50 determined from [Ca2+] increase; n) EC50 determined from initiation of platelet aggregation; o) EC50 determined from inhibition of PGI2 analog iloprost (3 nM) induced cAMP increase.
