Differential regulation of progestin receptor immunoreactivity in the rabbit oviduct.

abstract：:Atrial Natriuretic Factor (ANF) has been demonstrated within the central nervous system (CNS), where it has been implicated in the regulation of blood pressure, fluid and electrolyte balance. To explore the effect of acute plasma vol expansion on the activation of CNS ANF, changes in ANF levels of CSF drawn from the c...
