Definitive Molecular Evidence of Renin-Angiotensin System in Human Uterine Decidual Cells
1 Aug 2000
Abstract excerpt
The tissue renin-angiotensin system (RAS) has been suggested to be present in human gestational tissues, but uncertainty exists about the authenticity of this RAS, and the cellular origin of this RAS has not been defined. In the present study, we confirmed the presence of authentic renin and angiotensinogen in the prolactin-producing decidual tissue by sequencing the cDNAs generated through reverse...
