Does intracerebroventricular infusion of angiotensin II alter pressor responsiveness to intravenous angiotensin II and norepinephrine in conscious rats?
Activation of the brain renin-angiotensin system via intracerebroventricular infusion of a subpressor dose of angiotensin II enhances pressor responses to systemic vasoconstrictors in conscious rats.
MATSUO et al. (1986) studied this question.
