Abstrakt: The participation of the hypothalamus in the regulation of plasma renin activity (PRA) in rats was studied by applying electric stimulation to the supramammilar region (50 Hz, 1 ms, 150 μA), general hypoxia (90% N+10% O), and hypovolemia (peritoneal dialysis with 5.5% glucose) as stimuli of renin secretion. These techniques were combined with bilateral renal denervation and electrocoagulation in the supramammilar nuclei. PRA was determined by means of RIA (Radioimmunoassay) for AI with 2-h incubation. Our investigations showed that: These results suggested that: [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
