    IC50 - Wikipedia

    • Half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) is a measure of the potency of a substance in inhibiting a specific biological or biochemical function. IC50 is a quantitative measure that indicates how much of a particular inhibitory substance (e.g. drug) is needed to inhibit, in vitro, a given biological process or biological component by 50%. The biological component c… See more

  1. Half-maximal inhibitory concentration
    • According to 2 sources
    Half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) is the most widely used and informative measure of a drug's efficacy. It indicates how much drug is needed to inhibit a biological process by half, thus providing a measure of potency of an antagonist drug in pharmacological research.

    What does IC50 mean in chemistry?
    IC50 stands for inhibitory concentration 50%. That is, the concentration of inhibitor required to reduce the biological activity of interest to half of the uninhibited value. Because it does not directly measure a binding equilibrium, IC50 is less precise than Ki or Kd.

    What is IC 50 molar concentration?
    IC 50 values are typically expressed as molar concentration. IC 50 is commonly used as a measure of antagonist drug potency in pharmacological research. IC 50 is comparable to other measures of potency, such as EC 50 for excitatory drugs. EC 50 represents the dose or plasma concentration required for obtaining 50% of a maximum effect in vivo. [ 1 ]

    What does IC50 I C 50 mean?
    So when you look at binding curves, it's the 50% bound/unbound point on the curve (the inflection point). IC50 I C 50 indeed refers specifically to the inhibition of binding or inhibition of a function at which 50% of the peptide is bound and 50% is not bound (or 50% of the function is active and 50% is inactive).

    What are KD IC50 & EC50 in biochemistry and pharmacology?
    In biochemistry and pharmacology, a variety of parameters are reported as measures of the potency of enzyme inhibitors/drugs, including Ki, Kd, IC50, and EC50. Though related, their definitions greatly differ. In this article, I highlight the meaning and significance of each term, with emphasis on their disambiguation and appropriate usage.

    How is IC 50 determined?
    IC 50 can be determined with functional assays or with competition binding assays. Sometimes, IC 50 values are converted to the pIC50 scale. Due to the minus sign, higher values of pIC 50 indicate exponentially more potent inhibitors. pIC 50 is usually given in terms of molar concentration (mol/L, or M), thus requiring IC 50 in units of M.
