Quantitative expressions have been derived to determine the affinity constant for the in vivo interaction of an antigen with its elicited monoclonal antibody by analysing the redistribution of antigen following antibody administration. Using this method, the intrinsic binding constant for the interaction of subtoxic doses of DMI in rats with anti-TCA was found to be about two orders of magnitude less than the value obtained in vitro. The disparity is probably due to the presence of endogenous ligands for the antibody.

D012044 Regression Analysis Procedures for finding the mathematical function which best describes the relationship between a dependent variable and one or more independent variables. In linear regression (see LINEAR MODELS) the relationship is constrained to be a straight line and LEAST-SQUARES ANALYSIS is used to determine the best fit. In logistic regression (see LOGISTIC MODELS) the dependent variable is qualitative rather than continuously variable and LIKELIHOOD FUNCTIONS are used to find the best relationship. In multiple regression, the dependent variable is considered to depend on more than a single independent variable.

D003891 Desipramine A tricyclic dibenzazepine compound that potentiates neurotransmission. Desipramine selectively blocks reuptake of norepinephrine from the neural synapse, and also appears to impair serotonin transport. This compound also possesses minor anticholinergic activity, through its affinity to muscarinic receptors.
