Abstract excerpt

Polyclonal antisera to the alpha and pi isoenzymes of glutathione S-transferase have been used in immunohistochemical studies of developing human lung. In utero expression of the pi set was down-regulated in distal airway cells and the first appearance of pi-negative cells coincided with phenotyp...
