TL;DR
In an attempt to find an isolated preparation which would be selectively sensitive to vasopressin, portions of the guinea-pig gut were tested serially and it was found that the most proximal portion of the colon fulfilled this requirement.

The activity of a posterior pituitary extract is still generally determined by the method intro-duced by Dale and Laidlaw (1912), which used the uterus of a virgin guinea-pig to set limits to the potency of the test solution in terms of the standard solution by the usual ABBA grouping of doses.

The evidence is convincing at the present time for the occurrence in nature of arginine-vasotocin, and a remarkable example of the synthesis of a polypeptide hormone before its identification as a natural product is represented.

The results show that angiotensin causes most of its contractile response in both the guinea-pig and rabbit ileum by an indirect action, through the stimulation of nervous tissue.

The known neurohypophysial hormones and several synthetic analogues containing substituted amino acids in the side chain were injected intravenously into hydra ted dogs and rats to determine the relative antidiuretic activities of the peptides in dogs and Rats.
