Polydipsia and abolition of angiotensin-induced drinking after transections of subfornical organ efferent projections in the rat. 1981

R Eng, and R R Miselis

Rats with transections of subfornical organ (SFO) efferent projections failed to drink to intravenous angiotensin-II (AII) but responded to intracellular dehydration and water deprivation and suppressed drinking when food deprived. However, the transected rats were polydipsic and polyuric. Thus SFO efferent projections mediate AII-induced drinking and may be involved in the regulation of body fluid balance.

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.
