[Effect of angiotensin on salt intake behavior of rat].
Intravenous infusion of various doses of Ang II caused significant increases of the salt intake in S-D rats as a result of natriuretic action of the drug. The phenomenon could be abolished by administration of aldosterone but unaffected by adrenalectomy. Captopril could suppress the Ang II effect. Discrepancies with a previous work on the interpretation of the action mode of Ang II were discussed.
