title: Hypovolemia induces Fos-like immunoreactivity in neurons of the rat supraoptic and paraventricular nuclei.
abstract: Immunoreactivities to Fos proteins were detected in numerous neurons in the supraoptic, paraventricular and accessory neurosecretory nuclei 1 h following withdrawal of 4-5 cc of blood from the rat femoral arteries. Few or no positive cells were observed in the same nuclei in sham-operated or control animals. It is concluded that hypovolemia induces c-fos expression in hypothalamic neurons known to be associated with blood volume/pressure regulation.
