Abstract
Intravenous injection of vasopressin in a dose of 5 pressor units/kg body weight led after 1 h to changes in the ATPase activity of rabbit heart and liver microsomes. These changes differed in direction: Mg- or Ca-activated ATPase activity of the cardiac microsomes was very slightly increased, whereas ATPase activity of the hepatic microsomes was reduced.
