title: Influence of somatostatin on blood pressure and plasma renin activity in the rat.
abstract: In the anaesthetized rat synthetic somatostatin can interfere with the renin-angiotensin system by increasing plasma renin activity and decreasing normal blood pressure or counteracting several types of experimental hypertension.
