Functional evidence that the central renin-angiotensin system plays a role in the pressor response induced by central injection of carbachol

Functional evidence that the central renin-angiotensin system plays a role in the pressor response induced by central injection of carbachol

We investigated the effects of losartan, an AT1-receptor blocker, and ramipril, a converting enzyme inhibitor, on the pressor response induced by angiotensin II (ANG II) and carbachol (a cholinergic receptor agonist). Male Holtzman rats (250-300 g) with a stainless steel cannula implanted into the l...
