## Abstract The lateral septal area (LSA) is a part of the limbic system and is involved in cardiovascular modulation. We previously reported that microinjection of noradrenaline (NA) into the LSA of unanesthetized rats caused pressor responses that are mediated by acute vasopressin release. Magnoc
