Abstract
Renin in hog anterior pituitary was located principally in the particulate fractions. Density gradient centrifugation of the granular fraction revealed a discrete band of renin activity distinct from lysosomal and mitochondrial markers. This band has a density similar to that of known kidney renin secretory granules and may be due to renin secretory or storage granules in the anterior pituitary.This publication has 12 references indexed in Scilit:
