title: Action of angiotensin II on cultured brain stem neurons of the rat.
abstract: Following the application of angiotensin II to cultured lower brain stem neurons of rat embryos, the facilitatory response was mostly seen in small-sized oval, fusiform, and polygonal neurons, while the inhibitory response was seen in medium-sized pyramidal and multipolar neurons. Saralasin blocked both facilitatory and slow inhibitory responses, but had no effect on the fast inhibitory response.
