Angiotensin II Receptor Binding in the Locus ceruleus of Spontaneously Hypertensive Rats and Wistar-Kyoto Rats: A Quantitative Autoradiographic Study with References to Hypertension and Cardiac/Testicular Hypertrophy

Abstract: The locus ceruleus (LC) contains a high density of angiotensin II (AII) receptors. The role of AII receptors at the LC in genetic hypertension and organ function is unclear. Spontaneously hypertensive (SHR) rats and Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats were studied, and blood pressure of animals was measured using the tail-cuff method. Animals were decapitated and the heart weight (HW) and testicular weight (TW) of animals measured. AII receptor binding was carried out by incubating the LC tissue sections with 200 pM [ Show more
