Saturation binding analyses of 125I-SI Ang II binding to the novel Ang II/Ang III binding site in mouse forebrain, testis, spleen, pancreas, skeletal muscle, heart, lung, epididymis, and seminal vesicles. Bmax (fmol/mg protein) and KD (nM) (± SEM) values reported do not include samples for which Bmax or KD was not significantly different from zero (95% confidence interval from the saturation isotherm was zero or less from the non-linear regression analysis to the equation B = Bmax[D]/(KD + [D]) where [D] = concentration of 125I SI Ang II) [n = samples used (total samples)]. Values shown in italics are for tissues and conditions in which binding was not reliably detectable in half or more of the assays.
