The cardiovascular effects of intraventricular 5,6-dihydroxytryptamine in conscious hypertensive rats.

abstract：:1. The neuronal release of acetylcholine (ACh) and its autoregulation by neuromodulators, substance P (SP) and methionine enkephalin (MEK), have been studied using superfused rodent cerebral slices. Nicotine exerts significant effects on autoregulation of ACh release, which may have toxicological implications. 2. Posi...
