Peripheral action of angiotensin II.
The effects of angiotensin II were studied on isolated atrial preparations of nonreserpinised and reserpinised rabbits, before and after treating the preparations by propranolol. Peripheral action of angiotensin was cardioaccelerator via direct stimulation of beta-receptors of the atria in isolated atrial preparations.
