Angiotensin II regulates choroid plexus blood flow by interacting with the sympathetic nervous system and nitric oxideA Chodobski
Program in Neurosurgery, Department of Clinical Neurosciences, Brown University Rhode Island Hospital, Aldrich Bldg, Rm 403, 593 Eddy Street, Providence, RI 02903
Brain Res 816:518-26. 1999..The AII-mediated stimulation of sympathetic nerves also results in the beta-adrenoceptor-dependent relaxation of choroidal blood vessels. In addition, choroidal vasodilatory actions of AII are NO-mediated...
Traumatic brain injury results in a concomitant increase in neocortical expression of vasopressin and its V1a receptorC L Pascale

Multiple sites of vasopressin synthesis in the injured brainJoanna Szmydynger-Chodobska
Department of Emergency Medicine, Alpert Medical School of Brown University, Providence, Rhode Island 02903, USA
J Cereb Blood Flow Metab 31:47-51. 2011..In the cortex, vasopressin was predominantly produced by activated microglia/macrophages, and, to a lesser extent, by the cerebrovascular endothelium. These data further support the pathophysiological role of vasopressin in brain injury...
The role of the choroid plexus in neutrophil invasion after traumatic brain injuryJoanna Szmydynger-Chodobska
Department of Emergency Medicine, The Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University, Providence, Rhode Island 02903, USA
J Cereb Blood Flow Metab 29:1503-16. 2009..This is the first detailed analysis of the BCSFB function related to neutrophil trafficking. Our observations support the role of this barrier in posttraumatic neutrophil invasion...
Chronic hypernatremia increases the expression of vasopressin and voltage-gated Na channels in the rat choroid plexusJoanna Szmydynger-Chodobska
Department of Clinical Neurosciences, Brown University School of Medicine, Providence, RI, USA
Neuroendocrinology 84:339-45. 2006..It is also suggested that the increased expression of voltage-gated Na(+) channels found in the hypothalamus and CP after salt loading may play a role in the adaptation of AVP-producing cells to chronic hypernatremia...
