  1. Observed rates of association (kobs) of 40 nM [3H]ACh with and dissociation (koff) from individual subtypes of muscarinic receptors were obtained by fitting Eq. 6 to data in Figure 8 and Eq. 7c to data in Figure 9. Values are means ± SE of fits to 3 independent experiments performed in quadruplicates. *P < 0.05; significantly different from control ([3H]ACh alone) by t-test.
