Abstract:
Cardiovascular effects of microinjection of neuropeptide Y (NPY) into the lateral septal nucleus (LS) were investigated in anaesthetized rats. The microinjection gave rise to a significant increase in blood pressure and heart rate. The pressure response was dose-dependent but the tachycardia was not. Control injection of 0.9% saline into LS produced no haemodynamic response.
