Angiotensin II may mediate excitatory neurotransmission from the subfornical organ to the hypothalamic supraoptic nucleus: an anatomical and electrophysiological study in the rat

In the rat, it has been proposed that angiotensin II (AII) neurons in the subfornical organ, a midline circumventricular structure, participate in the activation of hypothalamic neurosecretory neurons and promote a rise in plasma vasopressin and oxytocin. In this study, we observed AII-immunoreactiv...
