Difference between Agonist and IC50

Agonist vs. IC50

An agonist is a chemical that binds to a receptor and activates the receptor to produce a biological response. The half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) is a measure of the potency of a substance in inhibiting a specific biological or biochemical function.

Similarities between Agonist and IC50

Agonist and IC50 have 6 things in common (in Unionpedia): Dose–response relationship, EC50, Potency (pharmacology), Receptor (biochemistry), Receptor antagonist, Therapeutic index.

Dose–response relationship

The dose–response relationship, or exposure–response relationship, describes the change in effect on an organism caused by differing levels of exposure (or doses) to a stressor (usually a chemical) after a certain exposure time, or to a food.

EC50

Half maximal effective concentration (EC50) refers to the concentration of a drug, antibody or toxicant which induces a response halfway between the baseline and maximum after a specified exposure time.

Receptor antagonist

A receptor antagonist is a type of receptor ligand or drug that blocks or dampens a biological response by binding to and blocking a receptor rather than activating it like an agonist.

Therapeutic index

The therapeutic index (TI; also referred to as therapeutic ratio) is a comparison of the amount of a therapeutic agent that causes the therapeutic effect to the amount that causes toxicity.
