Synthesis and release of immunoreactive angiotensinogen by rat liver slices

E Clauser, J Bouhnik, E Coezy, P Corvol and J Menard

Hepatic storage and secretion of angiotensinogen was studied using rat liver slices and a new direct angiotensinogen RIA. This assay permitted the demonstration of a significant hepatic storage of angiotensinogen, largely underestimated until now by the enzymatic method of angiotensinogen measurement. Angiotensinogen release by rat liver slices was linear with time and was associated with a significant increase in hepatic content of angiotensinogen. The measurement of both release and changes in hepatic content permitted the measurement of de novo synthesis of angiotensinogen by rat liver slices in vitro. Both hepatic content and release of angiotensinogen were decreased by thyroidectomy and increased by ethinyl estradiol, dexamethasone, thyroid hormones, and binephrectomy.
