title: Sodium depletion and Fos-immunoreactivity in lamina terminalis.
abstract: Rats were either depleted of sodium by treatment with a diuretic or were made hypovolemic by injection of polyethylene glycol (PEG) and their brains were subsequently examined for induction of Fos-like immunoreactivity (FLI). FLI was observed in the lamina terminalis (LT) after both treatments; FLI was observed in the magnocellular neurosecretory hypothalamic areas only after PEG. Implications of these data for brain substrates of sodium appetite are discussed.
