Abstract: The crucial role of the median preoptic nucleus (MnPO) in the maintenance of hydroelectrolytic balance and autonomic regulation have been highlighted. Recently, the participation of the MnPO in the control of sympathetic nerve activity was… read more here.

Abstract: The brain is sensitive to Angiotensin II (ANG II) and we have previously shown that ANG II is released by brain slices containing the median preoptic nucleus (MnPO) and subfornical organ (SFO) in an activity… read more here.

Abstract: The paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus (PVN) is an important autonomic control center that receives afferent inputs from the median preoptic nucleus (MnPO). The link between the MnPO and the PVN is essential in generating… read more here.

Abstract: Experiments were designed to test the hypothesis that median preoptic (MnPO) neurons are necessary for the full hypertensive response to chronic angiotensin II (AngII) in rats consuming a high salt diet. The MnPO is implicated… read more here.
