TABLE 1

IC50 and maximal efficacy values for the effects of ML213 on spontaneous phasic, KCl-induced (20 mM), CCh-induced (0.1 or 1 µM), and EFS-induced (10 or 20 Hz) phasic contractions in guinea pig DSM isolated strips

IC50 values are presented as the mean (95% confidence interval). Maximal efficacy is presented as the mean ± S.E.M. and is normalized to the control on a scale from 100% to 0% (full relaxation); n/a=not applicable (negligible effect on parameter).
