The cellular localization of angiotensin II immunoreactivity and the presence of angiotensin II binding in rat ovaries were studied. Angiotensin II immunohistochemical staining was demonstrated throughout the corpora lutea of gonadotropin-stimulated immature rats and pseudopregnant adult rats, as well as in some stromal and thecal cells surrounding large antral follicles. No immunostaining was observed in granulosa cells of preantral or antral rat follicles or in ovaries from unstimulated immature rats. With in vitro autoradiography, specific, saralasin-suppressible 125I-angiotensin II binding was demonstrated in normal cycling rat ovaries: diestrus greater than proestrus greater than estrus. The combined findings of angiotensin II immunostaining in ovarian follicles and corpora lutea and of cycle-related angiotensin II binding support the hypothesis of a functional role for the ovarian renin-angiotensin system.

D010053 Ovary The reproductive organ (GONADS) in female animals. In vertebrates, the ovary contains two functional parts: the OVARIAN FOLLICLE for the production of female germ cells (OOGENESIS); and the endocrine cells (GRANULOSA CELLS; THECA CELLS; and LUTEAL CELLS) for the production of ESTROGENS and PROGESTERONE.

D000804 Angiotensin II An octapeptide that is a potent but labile vasoconstrictor. It is produced from angiotensin I after the removal of two amino acids at the C-terminal by ANGIOTENSIN CONVERTING ENZYME. The amino acid in position 5 varies in different species. To block VASOCONSTRICTION and HYPERTENSION effect of angiotensin II, patients are often treated with ACE INHIBITORS or with ANGIOTENSIN II TYPE 1 RECEPTOR BLOCKERS.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
