    Abstract:
    The existence of adrenomedullin (AM) in the rat hypothalamus was examined by immunohistochemistry. AM-immunoreactive neurons were found in the supraoptic nucleus (SON) and in the magnocellular parts of the paraventricular nucleus (PVN). The co-existence of AM-, oxytocin- and/or vasopressin-immunoreactivity was identified in the same neurons in the hypothalamus. The results suggest that the AM may play a role in neurotransmission or in cardiovascular control with neurohypophyseal hormones.
