Location of dopamie stores in rat kidney

Summary In normotensive and genetically hypertensive Wistar rats, chronic renal denervation reduces renal cortical levels of noradrenaline and dopamine by more than 90%. Non-neural stores of renal dopamine are therefore small or absent.This work was supported by the National Heart Foundation of Australia, the National Health and Medical Research Council of Australia and the University of Melbourne.
