Correlations between ANP concentrations in atria, plasma and cerebral structures and sodium chloride preference in Wistar rats
We determined whether ANP (atrial natriuretic peptide) concentrations, measured by radioimmunoassay, in the ANPergic cerebral regions involved in regulation of sodium intake and excretion and pituitary gland correlated with differences in sodium preference among 40 Wistar male rats (180-220 g).
