Résumé

En employant des crapauds pour doser l'action des peptides sur la perméabilité de la peau, l'effet hydrosmotique de l'arginine8-vasotocine s'est montré 200 fois plus puissant que celui de l'ornithine8-oxytocine. Ce fait confirme l'importance hydrosmotique de l'acide aminé arginine dans la position 8. Tous 2 ont eu un effet natriférique, mais ce ne fut pas le cas de la lysine8-vasopressine et l'ornithine8-vasopressine. L'importance natriférique de l'acide aminé isoleucine dans la position 3 en est confirmée.
