title: Effects of three synthetic peptides analogous to neurophypophyseal hormones on the excitability of giant neurones of Achatina fulica Férussac.
abstract: Deamino-dicarba-(D-D)oxytocin and D-D-Arg-vasotocin at 10(-4)Kg/l showed an excitatory effect on the periodically oxcillating neurone (PON) of Achatina fulica Férussac. D-D-Arg-vasopressin had no effect.
