The influence of the way of regression on the results obtained by the receptorial responsiveness method (RRM), a procedure to estimate a change in the concentration of a pharmacological agonist near the receptor
Abstract:The receptorial responsiveness method (RRM) enables the estimation of a change in the concentration of a degradable agonist, near its receptor, by fitting its model to (at least) two concentration-effect (E/c) curves of a stable agonist of this receptor. One curve should be generated before this change in concentration, while the other one after this change, in the same (or in identical) biological system(s). It follows that RRM yields a surrogate parameter ('cx'), the concentration of the stable agonist that … Show more
