Effect of adrenalectomy on the pressor response to water deprivation. A: MAP and HR responses to 48 h of water deprivation in rats with (sham) or without (ADx + Cort + Aldo) adrenals. Adrenalectomized rats received replacement corticosterone and aldosterone. B: MAP and HR changes from baseline: 4-h averages from the light and dark phases at the end of water deprivation compared with the equivalent baseline averages. *P < 0.05 between groups; #P < 0.05 within sham; ^P 0.05 within ADx + Cort + Aldo.
