1 The findings confirm our previous suggestion that, in the rat caudal artery, angiotensin II receptors similar to the AT1B subtype subserve enhancement of transmitter noradrenaline release. Norepinephrine angiotensinogen Rattus norvegicus
2 The synergistic prejunctional interaction of 0.01 microM losartan and 0.1 microM angiotensin II may be due to either the unmasking by losartan of a latent population of angiotensin II receptors also subserving facilitation of transmitter noradrenaline release, or alternatively, losartan may block an inhibitory action of angiotensin II on transmitter noradrenaline release which normally opposes its facilitatory effect. Norepinephrine angiotensinogen Rattus norvegicus
