Representative autoradiographs of sections hybridized with a 35S-labeled oligodeoxynucleotide probe complementary to CRH in the PVN at 3, 12, and 20 h after bilateral nephrectomy (Nx) or sham operation (Sham). Sections were obtained from untreated (A-a), sham-operated (A-b–d), and bilateral-nephrectomized rats (A-f–h) at 3, 12, and 20 h after treatment. Schematic anatomic representation of the nuclei (orange shading) adapted from the rat brain atlas (e). Scale bar 1 mm. Signal intensity ranges from high (red) to low (blue)
