Abstract
A specific receptor for tumour necrosis factor present in a purified plasma membrane preparation from the villous tissue of human placenta has been characterized. The data fit a one-class-of-sites model exhibiting a KD = 28.4 (+/- 0.002) nM, with 8.1 (+/- 0.05) X 10(11) receptors mg-1 membrane protein. These data provide evidence for the existence of a specific receptor for a major endotoxin-induced cytokine in the placenta.Entities:
