1 Injections of ANF (20 pmol rat atriopeptin III in 20 nl) into the DMN evoked a vagally dependent reduction in gastric motility. Dimethylnitrosamine natriuretic peptide A Rattus norvegicus
2 We propose that ANF-containing neurons in the DMN reduce gastric motility by activating vagal efferents that synapse with inhibitory neurons in the gastric enteric nervous system. Dimethylnitrosamine natriuretic peptide A Rattus norvegicus
