Polyadenylated ribonucleic acid [poly(A)(+)-RNA] has been isolated from the cytoplasm of the epithelium of the urinary bladder of the toad (Bufo marinus) by oligo-(deoxythymidylate)cellulose chromatography. Aldosterone increased the incorporation of [3H]uridine, and of [3H]uridine and [3H]adenosine (given in combination) into 7S, 12S, and 18S poly(A)(+)-RNA during the first 30 min of the action of the hormone, as defined by either a pulse or pulse-chase sequence. The quantity of cytoplasmic poly(A)(+)-RNA that hybridized to [3H]poly(uridine) was also increased by aldosterone. These results are consistent with the inference of induction of messenger RNA synthesis. This effect was most marked during the first 30 min of the action of the hormone.
