OUABAIN RECEPTOR BINDING OF HYDROXYPROGESTERONE DERIVATIVES [PDF]
A specific and sensitive radioreceptor assay has been devised which is based on high affinity, saturable binding of 9 nm[3H]‐ouabain to the total particulate fraction isolated from dog heart. Ouabain and other cardiac glycosides, including the aglycones, were about equipotent in their ability to displace [3H]‐ouabain from its receptor, the IC50s ...
