tn order to search target organs and to study the mechanism of the action of steroids with separated biological functions, tritium-labeled pregna-D'-pentaranes were synthesized by an original procedure, and their interaction with a progesterone receptor was investigated. The uterine progesterone receptor was shown to be the only specific binding protein for these compounds.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
