Abstract
⺠Intracranial Ang II in mice causes an acute dipsogenic effect via the AT1 receptor. ⺠The effect is followed by sustained profound antidipsogenic effect. ⺠Central Ang II also suppresses voluntary locomotion and food consumption. ⺠Such inhibitory effects persist throughout the entire dark phase of diurnal cycle. ⺠The effects imply a role for central Ang II in regulating metabolic homeostasis.
