Abstract
Disclosed is a method of screening a substance for angiotensinogen receptor-modulatory activity. The method includes the steps of contacting placental-derived cells with labeled angiotensinogen and a candidate substance; and then determining whether the candidate substance inhibits the binding of angiotensinogen to the placental-derived cells relative to a control wherein the placental-derived cells are contacted with angiotensinogen in the absence of the candidate substance.
