Journal ArticleDOI

The effect of the heptapeptide (2-8) and hexapeptide (3-8) fragments of angiotensin ii on aldosterone secretion1

TL;DR: The effect of local adrenal arterial infusion of the heptapeptide (2-8) and hexapeptides (3-3) fragments of angiotensin 11 on a aldosterone secretion was examined.
Journal ArticleDOI

Physiological, Morphological and Behavioural Adaptation to a Sodium Deficient Environment by Wild Native Australian and Introduced Species of Animals

TL;DR: Native Australian and introduced species of animals are adapted to severe sodium deficiency, and it has been shown that mechanisms controlling sodium homeostasis in wild rabbits are subject to profound stress.
Journal ArticleDOI

The hypertensive effect of synthetic glucocorticoids in man: role of sodium and volume.

TL;DR: Neither MC activity nor an increase in plasma volume is essential for steroids to induce a increase in blood pressure, and screening of synthetic GCs to minimize MC activity will not prevent hypertensive complications.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inhibition of renin secretion by systemic and intrarenal angiotensin infusion

TL;DR: It is concluded that the inhibition of renin release during sodium depletion was due to a direct intrarenal action of angiotensin II at physiological concentration in blood.
Journal ArticleDOI

Osmoregulatory thirst in sheep is disrupted by ablation of the anterior wall of the optic recess.

TL;DR: Ablation of the organum vasculosum of the lamina terminalis (OVLT) and adjacent midline tissue in the anterior wall of the optic recess of the third ventricle resulted in greatly reduced water drinking to intracarotid infusion of hypertonic NaCl in sheep.
