Wu et al., Acta Pharmacol Sin 2000
(Anoxia) :
To investigate the effects of angiotensin II (Ang II) on corticotropin releasing hormone (CRH) and argipressin ( AVP ) release from median eminence ( ME ) of hypothalamus during acute hypoxia in rats
Jain et al., Neuroendocrinology 2004
:
As angiotensin II (Ang II) regulates CRH , AVP and sympathetic activity, we studied the expression of Ang II receptors in the hypothalamus and adrenal gland of GR transgenic and wild-type mice, adrenal catecholamines and mRNA for their rate limiting enzyme, tyrosine hydroxylase (TH)
Rivier et al., Regul Pept 1983
:
The observation that this effect was totally abolished by immunoneutralization of endogenous CRF, as well as the lack of stimulatory activity of ANG II in pharmacologically blocked animals, suggest that the induction of CRF secretion by ANG II represents an essential modulator of the ACTH releasing potency of this peptide
