[Blood levels of corticosterone, aldosterone, angiotensin and ACTH in rats after deafferentation of the tongue].
The influence of tongue deafferentation on the plasma level of sodium homeostasis-controlling hormones has been studied. Using radioimmunoassay, high corticosterone and aldosterone plasma levels were discovered in rats with tongue deafferentation, as compared to sham-operated controls. ACTH and angiotensin I plasma concentrations in deafferentated rats were the same as in sham-operated rats. The role of emotional factors of taste perception in sodium homeostasis control is being discussed.
