Abstract
The functional response of the kidney to desmopressin and morphological changes in epitheliocytes of collecting tubes were studied on homozygotic Brattleboro rats. Redistribution of β-glucuronidase fractions and increase in the number of osmiophilic granules reflecting increased production of vasopressin-dependent proteins and hyaluronate hydrolase exocytosis were typical structural correlates of the effect of vasopressin.
