title: Stimulating effect of angiotensin II on the spontaneous release of newly synthetized [3H]dopamine in rat striatal slices.
abstract: Angiotensin II (A II) (10(-6) M, 10(-5) M, 5 . 10(-5) M) stimulated the spontaneous release of [3H]dopamine (DA) continuously synthetized from [3H]tyrosine in striatal slices of the rat. The A II-evoked release of [3H]-DA was prevented when slices were superfused with a calcium-free medium containing EGTA 5 . 10(-4) M. It was also suppressed in the presence of the potent antagonist Sar1-Ile8-angiotensin.
