| Bioactivity Comments | 
| The potency of runcaciguat was determined as the MEC (minimal effective concentration) that promotes cGMP formation (determined as an at least threefold increase in basal luminescence) in a recombinant sGC-overexpressing cell line [1]. In this assay system runcaciguat's MEC was 1.8 nM. In a biochemical assay using purified enzyme its EC50 is 18 nM. |
