Nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI): clinical, laboratory and genetic characterization of five Brazilian patients

open access: yesClinics, 2009
INTRODUCTION: Nephrogenic diabetes insipidus is characterized by a lack of response in the distal nephron to the antidiuretic hormone arginine vasopressin.

Functionality of promoter microsatellites of arginine vasopressin receptor 1A (AVPR1A): implications for autism

open access: yesMolecular Autism, 2011
BackgroundArginine vasopressin (AVP) has been hypothesized to play a role in aetiology of autism based on a demonstrated involvement in the regulation of social behaviours.

Morphofunctional Alterations of the Hypothalamus and Social Behavior in Autism Spectrum Disorders

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2020
An accumulating body of evidence indicates a tight relationship between the endocrine system and abnormal social behavior. Two evolutionarily conserved hypothalamic peptides, oxytocin and arginine-vasopressin, because of their extensively documented ...

Oxytocin and arginine vasopressin systems in the domestication process [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics and Molecular Biology, 2018
Domestication is of unquestionable importance to the technological revolution that has given rise to modern human societies. In this study, we analyzed the DNA and protein sequences of six genes of the oxytocin and arginine vasopressin systems (OXT-OXTR; AVP-AVPR1a, AVPR1b and AVPR2) in 40 placental mammals.

Association of Polymorphism of Arginine-Vasopressin Receptor 1A (AVPR1a) Gene With Trust and Reciprocity

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2019
Oxytocin (OXT) is known to play an important role in trust, whereas the involvement of other peptide hormones has not been evaluated. In this study, we focused on microsatellite polymorphisms in the intron of the arginine-vasopressin receptor 1a (AVPR1a)

New Topics in Vasopressin Receptors and Approach to Novel Drugs: Vasopressin and Pain Perception

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2009
Arginine vasopressin (AVP) activates three vasopressin receptors and it also has an agonistic activity on the oxytocin receptor. For an accurate description of the target receptor subtype(s) responsible for complex AVP and oxytocin actions, a careful ...

Effects of Arginine Vasopressin on musical short-term memory

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2013
Previous genetic studies showed an association between variations in the gene coding for the 1a receptor of the neuro-hormone arginine vasopressin (AVP) and musical working memory (WM).
