Abstract

The development of radioligand binding technique during the past decade has led to increased understanding of the cascade of events in hormone-receptor coupling and receptor-mediated signal-transducing processes [14].

This work was supported by a grant from the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft. We are indebted to the Robert-Pfleger-Stiftung for generous gift of the Packard Tri-Carb and the Hewlett-Packard computer and to the Paul- and Cilli-Weill-Stiftung for the filtration device.
