Abstract
Techniques developed over the years in our laboratory for the study of tissue expression, storage, and secretion of the cardiac hormones ANF, BNP, and CNP are described below. They have proven highly reliable in our hands when the steps outlined are followed as described. Given the generic nature of the procedures, these should be applicable to other polypeptides.
