    Notes: Summary An unusual case of primary aldosteronism with bilateral single adenomas is reported. The two tumors were revealed by computerized axial tomography and subsequently confirmed by surgical exploration. Spironolactone therapy prior to the operation induced the formation of spironolactone bodies in only one of the two adenomas. As it has been postulated that these cytoplasmic inclusions may reflect the activity of the adenomatous cells, the presence of the bodies in a single adenoma would indicate a unilateral source of the hyperaldosteronism. Thus, the existence of spironolactone bodies could corroborate the data of functional localizing tests more closely than the morphological findings of computerized tomography.

    Notes: Abstract Single-channel currents were recorded from two classes of Ca2+ channels in visceral smooth muscle cells isolated from the stomach of the toad, Bufo marinus: a class of small-conductance channels (approximately 11 pS) and a class of large-conductance channels (approximately 26 pS). Small-conductance channels were present in a majority of patches and gave rise to a slowly inactivating current (t1/2 ≈ 250 ms at 0 mV). Openings of large-conductance channels could be unequivocally resolved only in the presence of the dihydropyridine Ca2+ agonist Bay K 8644. Two subtypes of the large-conductance channels were found — those with a very slow rate of decay (〉 500 ms) and those with a faster one (〈 100ms). Large-conductance channels resemble L-type Ca2+ channels of other preparations. Small-conductance channels do not fit unambiguously into the other existing categories (i.e., N or T). Correspondence between single-channel and macroscopic Ca2+ currents is discussed.
