FIGURE 2. In vitro binding of 3H-CGP12177 to ß-adrenoreceptors in membrane preparations: representative saturation binding assay curve for a heart from the group perfused at 6 mL/min (A), Scatchard plot using data from the same heart (B), and saturation binding assay curve for a heart from the propranolol-blocking group (C). No specific binding can be detected in this study.

FIGURE 3. Representative time–activity curves for each group: high-flow study (A), low-flow study (B), and ß-blocker study (C). In each group, a second injection with lower specific activity was performed 25 min after the first injection. inj = injection.
