Converting-enzyme in the choroid plexus, brain, and kidney: immunocytochemical and biochemical studies in rats.

Abstract:

:In rats, immunoreactivity was demonstrated in the brush border of the choroid plexus, in the wall of blood vessels in the brain, and in the brush border of the proximal tubules of the kidney, using the peroxidase-antiperoxidase technique (PAP) and an anti-pulmonary converting-enzyme antibody. These findings correlate with biochemical data of converting-enzyme activity in the choroid plexus and in other tissues. Possible functions of the enzyme in relation to its localization are discussed.
