Abstract
Abstract
Specific polyclonal rabbit anti-human renin substrate-antibodies were used in order to study the distribution of renin substrate immunoreactivity in human fetal and placental tissue. Renin substrate was immunohistochemically detected in human decidua and placenta, as well as in 19 weeks old human fetal liver and kidney. The presence of renin substrate in fetoplacental tissue supports the concept of a locally functioning renin-angiotensin system.
