Vasopressin and angiotensin receptors of the medial septal area in the control of mean arterial pressure induced by vasopressin
Introduction. Brain arginine 8 -vasopressin (AVP), through the V 1a - and V 2 -receptors, is essential for the maintenance of mean arterial pressure (MAP). Central AVP interacts with the components of the renin-angiotensin system, which participate in MAP regulation. This study aimed to determine th...
