These include: angiotensin II and its peptide precursors; the tachykinins Substance P, eledoisin and physalaemin; the opioid peptides met- and leu-enkephalin and beta-endorphin; bombesin; neurotensin; and vasopressin ...

Thirst‐induced anorexias and the ontogeny of thirst in the rat

Developmental Psychobiology, 1988
AbstractIn previous work (Leshem, M., Boggan, B., and Epstein, A.N. (1988). The ontogeny of drinking evoked by activation of brain angiotensin in the rat pup. Dev. Psychobiol. Vol. 21, pp. 63–75) we showed that thirst elicited by activation of the brain's renin‐angiotensin system in the suckling becomes specific to water after 16 days of age.

Role of angiotensin in thirst

Pharmacology Biochemistry and Behavior, 1977
Angiotensin is a potent dipsogenic substance and causes elevated water intake in some pathological conditions but as yet no physiological role for angiotensin in normal thirst has been proven. If angiotensin is important in normal drinking, then it should contribute to the drinking which follows water deprivation.
