20'~ 327 PHAR ~COLOGY

I. Principle 05 The affinity of the products of the Examples for angiotensin II receptors is evaluated by the tech-nique of displacing a radioligand specifically bound to rat adrenal angiotensin II receptors.

II. Procedure An aliquot of a rat adrenal gland homogenate incubates in the presence of a single concentration of [l2sI]-SIAII (Sar1,Tyr~,Ile~-angiotensin II), which is an angiotensin II receptor antagonist, and two concentra-tions of competing agents (10-5 M, I0-7 M) for 60 min at 25 C.
The reaction is completed by the addition of a buffer, followed by rapid filtration through glasspaper filters. The non-specific binding is determined in the presence of angiotensin II.

III. Expression of ~he resul~s The results are expressed, for the concentra-tions tested, as the percentage displacement of the radioligand specifically bound to the adrenal angio-tensin II receptors.
