Effects of iontophoretically applied cortisol on tuberoinfundibular neurons in hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus of anesthetized rats.

abstract：:The central cardiovascular effects of neuropeptide Y (NPY) have been investigated by microinjection of the peptide into the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN) of conscious rats. NPY (100 ng) elicited a significant bradycardia in both Long Evans (control) rats (-27 +/- beats/min) and vasopressin-deficient Bratt...
