The role of angiotensin (ANG II) at the tissue level, particularly in the brain, remains imperfectly defined. We measured angiotensinogen (A-degrees) mRNA in the brain stems, sensory and sympathetic ganglia, and blood vessels of Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) and stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR-SP) by quantitative, liquid hybridization. We micro-injected ANG II and glutamate into the brain stems of these rats to gain insight into the functional significance of our findings. A-degrees mRNA was found in the dorsolateral, dorsomedial, and ventrolateral pons, as well as in the dorsolateral, dorsomedial, and ventrolateral medulla of both strains. A-degrees mRNA was 8-10 pg/mug total mRNA higher (p
