Angiotensin II stimulates the release of ACTH from dispersed rat anterior pituitary cells.
In a rat anterior pituitary dispersed cell system, angiotensin II was found to stimulate the release of ACTH at concentrations ranging from 100 pmol/l to 1 mumol/l, with a maximal response being given by 10 nmol/l. The angiotensin II antagonist, saralasin, was able to block completely at a concentra...
