  • Title: Angiotensin II-sensitive neurons in the rat lateral hypothalamic area with efferent projections to the subfornical organ.
    Author: Tanaka J, Kaba H, Saito H, Seto K.
    Journal: Exp Neurol; 1986 Dec; 94(3):791-5. PubMed ID: 3780922.
    Abstract:
    Thirteen neurons in the lateral hypothalamic area were antidromically activated by electrical stimulation of the subfornical organ in the rat. The activity of almost all identified neurons (N = 11) was excited by microiontophoretically applied angiotensin II. On the other hand, of the antidromically unidentified lateral hypothalamic area neurons (N = 10) tested, 4 were excited by microiontophoretically applied angiotension II and 6 were not affected. The excitatory responses of identified and unidentified lateral hypothalamic area neurons to angiotensin II were blocked by microiontophoretically applied saralasin, an angiotensin II antagonist.
