β-adrenergic control of the water permeability of the skin during rehydration in the toad Bufo arenarum

1. Toads dehydrated to 80% of their standard weight (% SW) were rehydrated during 3 hr in distilled water. 2. Water permeability of the skin was positively correlated with the degree of dehydration in the range 80-100% SW. 3. Systemic administration of the β-adrenergic agonist isoproterenol (5 mg/kg...
