Abstract
Effects of aldosterone and vasopressin on the intracellular Ca2+ activity in the isolated cortical collecting tubules were studied. Both aldosterone and vasopressin were shown to evoke a transient increase in intracellular Ca2+, the response amplitude being not reduced in the presence of the other hormones. As vasopressin via its membrane receptors, aldosterone is suggested to activate the system of second messengers containing intracellular Ca2+.
