Abstract
Vasopressin was extracted and measured from various areas of rat brain. Vasopressin in quantities many times that in circulating blood was found in most areas of brain except for cerebellum. The highest concentration of vasopressin were found in the amygdala, septum, thalamus and striatum. Homozygous Brattleboro rat brain contained negligible amounts of vasopressin. The rat brain extract reacted identically with standard vasopressin in the radioimmunoassay over a 40-fold dilution range and migrated with vasopressin on Sephadex G-25 chromatography.
