Characterization of the estrogen receptors in the uterine and blood eosinophil leukocytes.
Estrogen receptors are found in the rat uterine and in the eosinophil-rich human blood leukocyte 24,000 g fractions, but not in the low-eosinophil count human blood leukocyte 24,000 g fraction. The total number of binding sites per blood eosinophil leukocyte is 7,400 sites per cell, and the Kp=5.6 X 10(-10) M.
