Beta-adrenergic receptors in the vasopressin-containing neurons in the paraventricular and supraoptic nucleus of the rat

Brain Res. 1989 Oct 9;499(1):174-8. doi: 10.1016/0006-8993(89)91149-9.

Abstract

Immunocytochemical staining of alternate consecutive sections revealed that neurons with vasopressin-like immunoreactivity in the paraventricular and supraoptic nuclei had beta-adrenergic receptor-like immunoreactivity in the rats.
