Experiments were carried out in conscious, unrestrained, male rats to evaluate possible interactions between brain prostanoids and the brain renin-angiotensin system in the control of vasopressin release and in cardiovascular regulation. The intracerebroventricular (icv) administration of prostaglan
Angiotensin II (Ang II) given centrally produces an increase in blood pressure and motivation to drink. The physiological mechanisms that mediate the pressor response include release of vasopressin (AVP) and activation of the sympathetic nervous system. Using 2 new Ang II receptor antagonists, we we
