Key result
In vitro incubation of peripubertal rat ovaries with 1 microM angiotensin II stimulated estrogen, but not progesterone, secretion, suggesting its involvement in regulating ovarian function.
Angiotensin II receptors are present in rat ovaries and their activation stimulates estrogen secretion, suggesting a role in regulating ovarian function.

May modulate peripubertal rat ovarian estrogen secretion; extends receptor data but leaves open human relevance.
Pucell et al. (1987) studied Ovarian function. Angiotensin II was evaluated on Estrogen and progesterone secretion. In vitro incubation of peripubertal rat ovaries with 1 microM angiotensin II stimulated estrogen, but not progesterone, secretion, suggesting its involvement in regulating ovarian function.
