Abstract
- Examines the role of angiotensins II and III in regulating water flow through aquaporins in clam worms of Perinereis. Treatment of the clam worms with tetrachloroaurate (III) before and after angiotensin treatment; Function of tetrachloroaurate as blocker of aquaporins; Role of the angiotensins in increasing body weight in clam worms under a hypo-osmotic condition and decreasing body weight under a hyper-osmotic condition.
