Abstract:
A new affinity-purified anti-angiotensin II/III antibody ('BODE') was used to determine the location of angiotensin-like immunoreactivity in the paraventriculo-hypophysial pathway, especially in the pituitary. Angiotensin-like immunoreactivity was shown to be concentrated in the neurohypophysis and was characterised by a dense plexus of fibres and terminals.
