1. Recently it has been shown that injection of angiotensin II into the anterior diencephalon causes the rat to drink water. In the present experiments the dipsogenic action of a number of other substances including substances related to angiotensin was tested.2. Injection of 0.001 Goldblatt u. renin into the angiotensin-sensitive region causes the water-replete rat to drink. Drinking is slower in onset and continues for longer than after injection of angiotensin II.3. Synthetic tetradecapeptide renin substrate and angiotensin I were as effective as angiotensin II at causing water-replete rats to drink.4. beta-aspartic acid(1)-valine(5)-angiotensin II was also fully effective; but the D-arginine substituted octapeptide was much less effective.5. The (2-8) heptapeptide retained about 50% of the dipsogenic activity of the octapeptide, whereas the absence of phenylalanine at the other end of the peptide chain in the (1-7) heptapeptide results in an inactive compound.6. The (3-8) hexapeptide and the (4-8) pentapeptide, both of which have phenylalanine at the end of the chain, and the (1-4) and (5-8) tetrapeptide fragments of angiotensin II showed only a slight action on intake of water.7. Kallikrein, bradykinin, adenosine-3'5-cyclic phosphate, vasopressin and oxytocin caused no drinking when injected into the angiotensin-sensitive region.8. It is concluded that the requirements for the dipsogenic activity of angiotensin are the same as those for its other biological actions with the qualification that the precursor peptides are also active, presumably because they give rise to angiotensin II locally.
