Analyzing the adverse events of NK-1 receptor antagonists: a pharmacovigilance study from the FAERS database [PDF]
Background NK-1 receptor antagonists (NK-1RAs) are proven to be successful in preventing chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV). The safety profile of NK-1RAs has not been systematically analyzed in the real world.

Metabolic effects of vasopressin in pathophysiology of diabetic kidney disease
The diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is the major cause of the chronic kidney disease (CKD). Enhanced plasma vasopressin (VP) levels have been associated with the pathophysiology of DKD and CKD.

Clinical Implication of the Antidiuretic Hormone (ADH) Receptor Antagonist Mozavaptan Hydrochloride in Patients with Ectopic ADH Syndrome [PDF]
Ectopic antidiuretic hormone syndrome is a medical emergency characterized by dilutional hyponatremia. Clinical effectiveness of the vasopressin V2 receptor antagonist mozavaptan was evaluated in 16 patients. In short-term (7-day) treatment with the drug, serum sodium concentration (mean ± standard deviation) significantly (P = 0.002) increased from ...

Successful Long-Term Treatment of Hyponatremia in Syndrome of Inappropriate Antidiuretic Hormone Secretion with Satavaptan (SR121463B), an Orally Active Nonpeptide Vasopressin V2-Receptor Antagonist [PDF]
The effects of satavaptan (SR121463B), a novel long-acting orally active vasopressin V(2)-receptor antagonist, were investigated in patients with the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH). In the first part of this randomized, double-blind study, 34 patients first were treated with satavaptan (versus placebo) for up to 5 d ...

Vasopressin and a Nonpeptide Antidiuretic Hormone Receptor Antagonist (OPC-31260)
The development of nonpeptide orally active AVP analogues has provided a new tool with which to assess the physiological and pathophysiological role of vasopressin (AVP). We have previously characterised the nonpeptide vasopressin V1 receptor antagonist OPC-21268, and now report the in vitro characterisation of the nonpeptide V2 receptor antagonist OPC-

Angiotensin-(1-7) increases osmotic water permeability in isolated toad skin [PDF]
Angiotensin-(1-7) (Ang-(1-7)) increased osmotic water permeability in the isolated toad skin, a tissue with functional properties similar to those of the distal mammalian nephron. Concentrations of 0.1 to 10 μM were effective, with a peak at 20 min. This

Hyponatremia in Liver Cirrhosis
Hyponatremia is a commonly observed complication that is related to hypoalbuminemia and portal hypertension in patients with advanced liver cirrhosis. Hyponatremia in patients with liver cirrhosis is mostly dilutional hyponatremia and is defined when the
