Metabolic activity in the hypothalamus of homozygous and heterozygous Brattleboro rats and Long-Evans control rats was studied using cytochrome oxidase histochemistry. Increased metabolic activity was observed in the paraventricular nucleus (PVH), supraoptic nucleus (SON) and nucleus circularis (NC) of homozygous Brattleboro rats, and in the PVH of heterozygous rats. These results suggest that the metabolic activity of PVH and SON neurons is altered because of the inability of magnocellular neurosecretory neurons to produce vasopressin. In addition, the hyperactivity of neurons in the NC is probably related to the chronic dehydration present in these animals.
