Abstract
⺠Estrogen-dependent inhibition of sodium-depletion induced sodium appetite. ⺠Sodium-intake inhibition correlates with changes in neural activity of the OVLT and DRN. ⺠Sodium depletion-induced activity of the OVLT is absent in OVX + E2 rats. ⺠Estradiol-replacement in OVX rats reduces sodium intake and increases DRN-5HT-cell activity. ⺠Estradiol replacement increases the activity of vasopressinergic neurons.
