    Abstract:
    The dipsogenic potency of angiotensin II (ANGII, 200 micrograms/kg, SC) was examined after the removal of various postingestional factors. In the first experiment, rats with intragastric catheters were injected SC with ANGII and allowed water to drink. During the induced drinking, either NaCl (1.5 M) or water was injected into the stomach via the catheter at a rate of 0.1 ml for each ml water ingested orally. The water intake was identical in the two conditions. In a second experiment, rats, fitted with gastric fistulas, were administered ANGII and subsequent water intake with fistulas open was compared to that occurring with the fistulas closed. Rats drank more water during the first trial with fistulas open than with fistulas closed. Water intake during subsequent trials with an open fistula rose above that observed on the first trial. In a third experiment, rats with gastric fistulas were offered 0.15 M NaCl to drink. Intake was greater when the fistula was open than when it was closed. Intake of 0.15 M NaCl increased during the second trial with fistula open. Rats drank more 0.15 M NaCl during the first trial with an open fistula in Experiment 3 than those rats given water to drink on their first trial with fistula open in Experiment 2. These data suggest both oropharyngeal and postingestional factors interact in the control of ANGII-induced fluid intake.
