Johnson PL, Sajdyk TJ, Fitz SD, Hale MW, Lowry CA, Hay-Schmidt A, Shekhar A (2013) Angiotensin II’s role in sodium lactate-induced panic-like responses in rats with repeated urocortin 1 injections into the basolateral amygdala: amygdalar angiotensin receptors and panic. Prog Neuropsychopharmacol Biol Psychiatry 44:248-256. doi: 10.1016/j.pnpbp.2013.02.014 PMID: 23523745
Objective: To test the hypothesis that the subfornical organ (SFO) projects to the basolateral amygdala (BLA) and releases angiotensin-II (A-11) to mobilize panic responses.
Summary: The presence of AT-1R was confirmed in the BLA which, combined with previous data, suggests that A-II’s panicogenic effects in the BLA are AT-1R dependent.
Usage: Immunohistochemistry (1:250 to 1:500).
