1 Role of vasopressin in the ACTH response to isoprenaline. Isoproterenol arginine vasopressin Rattus norvegicus
2 The increase in plasma ACTHi following isoprenaline (120 microgram/kg) injection was diminished by about 35% in rats congenitally lacking vasopressin (Brattleboro rats), when compared to normal rats. Isoproterenol arginine vasopressin Rattus norvegicus
3 These results indicate that isoprenaline, given systemically, stimulates the release of pituitary ACTH and this response appears to be mediated in part by vasopressin acting as an ACTH-releasing factor. Isoproterenol arginine vasopressin Rattus norvegicus
