Infusion of OT or the V1 agonist [Phe2,Orn8]-vasotocin (POVT) (50 ng) into the dorsal vagal complex of urethane-anaesthetized male rats induced a sustained hypertension. Simultaneous infusion of the V1 antagonist d(CH2)5[Tyr(Me)2]-VP blocked the effect of POVT, but not of OT. The OT antagonist d(CH2)5[Tyr(Me)2,Thr4,Orn8,Tyr-NH(9)2]-vasotocin blocked the effect of OT, but not of POVT. The OT agonist [Thr4,Gly7]-OT had no effect. This suggests that OT-induced hypertension involves mechanisms independent of V1 and uterine-type OT receptors.
