## Abstract This study was conducted to define the molecular mechanism by which dehydration induces expression of neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) in the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN). Rats were deprived from water for 48 hr and then sacrificed immediately or 1 hr after ad libitum
To investigate the involvement of neuronal nitric oxide (NO) in the response of the brain to changes in blood pressure, we studied the activation of putative NO-producing neurons in the paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus (PVN) in rats whose mean arterial pressures (MAPs) were decreased by 4
