TABLE 1

Affinities of [3H]N-methylspiperone for wild-type and mutant D2 and D4 receptors

Binding affinities (KD) and receptor densities (Bmax) are expressed as the mean ± S.D. of three separate experiments. Fold change relative to the appropriate wild-type receptor is indicated in parentheses with down arrows (↓) indicating a decrease in KD value (higher relative affinity) or decrease in Bmax value (decreased relative receptor density) and up arrows (↑) indicating a increase in KD value (lower relative affinity) or increase in Bmax value (increased relative receptor density).
