title: Further characterization of cardiodigin, Na+, K+-ATPase inhibitor extracted from mammalian tissues.
abstract: This study was undertaken to characterize endogenous digitalis-like activity in water extract from mammalian tissues. Prepurified samples obtained from guinea-pig heart were analysed by reverse-phase HPLC using an acetonitrile gradient. The eluent was assayed for its activity as inhibitor of human heart Na+, K+-ATPase and digoxin-like immunoreactivity. Both activities were recovered in the same fraction after two successive chromatographic steps. These results provide further evidence for the presence of an endogenous digitalis-like factor, cardiodigin, in mammalian heart.
