title: [The role of mesotocin in the regulation of osmotic permeability of the urinary bladder epithelium in the frog].
abstract: The addition of 0.01 nM to 0.1 nM mesotocin to serosal Ringer solution of the frog urinary bladder did not change the osmotic water permeability, but increased hydroosmotic effect of 0.01 nM arginine vasotocin or 10 nM desmopressin. The data obtained allow one to conclude that mesotocin is involved in the modulation of the osmotic water permebility in frog urinary bladder.
