Neural mechanisms for the control of thirst and salt appetite in response to body fluid conditions and intake behavior

open access: yesNeuroscience Research
Terrestrial animals, including humans, seek out and consume adequate amounts of water and salt on a daily basis to maintain body fluid homeostasis.

Electrical stimulation in subfornical organ increases plasma vasopressin concentrations in the conscious rat

open access: yes, 1986
Electrical stimulation in the subfornical organ (SFO) of conscious freely moving rats was found to increase plasma vasopressin concentrations from control values of 1.43 +/- 0.32 to poststimulation values of 22.32 +/- 4.9 pg/ml (P less than 0.01 ...

Vasopressin release to central and peripheral angiotensin II in rats with lesions of the subfornical organ

open access: yes, 1984
Angiotensin II (Ang II), peripherally or centrally administered, increases plasma vasopressin concentrations in the rat. Peripherally injected Ang II was unable to effect the release of vasopressin in rats with subfornical organ (SFO) lesions.

Ablation of subfornical organ does not prevent angiotensin-induced water drinking in sheep

open access: yes, 1986
The subfornical organ (SFO) and surrounding periventricular tissue were ablated in sheep. Such a lesion did not significantly reduce water drinking in response to intracarotid, intravenous, or intracerebroventricular infusions of [Val5]angiotensin II ...

INCREASED ATRIAL NATRIURETIC PEPTIDE (6-33) BINDINC SITES IN THE SUBFORNICAL ORGAN OF WATER DEPRIVED AND BRAITLEBORO RATS

open access: yes, 1986
Binding sites for rat atrial natriuretic peptide (6-33) (ANP) were quantitated in the subfornical organ of chronically dehydrated homozygous Brattleboro rats unable to synthesize vasopressin; heterozygous Brattleboro rats, their contro'ls, Long tvans ...

Subfornical organ and supraoptic nucleus connections with septal neurons in rats

open access: yes, 1985
Extracellular single unit recordings obtained in pentobarbital-anesthetized male Sprague Dawley rats were utilized to examine the electrophysiology of connections of medial septum-diagonal band of Broca (MS-DBB) neurons with the subfornical organ (SFO),

Effect of calcitonin on the activity of ANG II-responsive neurons in the rat subfornical organ

open access: yes, 1998
In addition to the well-documented ability of calcitonin to lower blood calcium levels, blood-borne calcitonin may also affect neurons located outside the blood-brain barrier, e.g., in the subfornical organ (SFO), where numerous receptors for this ...

Thirst and vasopressin secretion following central administration of angiotensin II in rats with lesions of the septal area and subfornical organ

open access: yes, 1985
Various dipsogenic stimuli, including peripheral and central administration of angiotensin II, have been shown to be capable of releasing vasopressin from the neurohypophyseal system.
