Arginine vasopressin and copeptin in perinatology [PDF]
Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2016 Arginine vasopressin (AVP) plays a major role in the homeostasis of fluid balance, vascular tonus and the regulation of the endocrine stress response. The measurement of AVP levels is difficult due to its short half-life and laborious method of detection.

Effects of arginine vasopressin on migration and respiratory burst activity in human leukocytes
Open Medicine, 2018 Arginine vasopressin can bind to high-affinity vasopressin V1a receptors in human leukocytes. This study aims to investigate the effects of arginine vasopressin on migration and chemotaxis of neutrophils and oxygen free radical release by human ...

The Role of Arginine Vasopressin in Alcohol Tolerance [PDF]
Annals of Medicine, 1990 Administration of the neuropeptide, arginine vasopressin, to animals that have acquired functional tolerance to ethanol will maintain such tolerance, even in the absence of further ethanol ingestion by the animals. In mice, this action of the peptide is mediated by central nervous system V1 receptors and requires intact brain noradrenergic systems ...

Machine learning-based prediction of impaired arginine vasopressin secretion during hypertonic saline test [PDF]
Endocrine JournalHypertonic saline infusion and water deprivation tests are commonly used to stimulate arginine vasopressin (AVP) for the diagnosis of AVP deficiency (AVP-D); however, these procedures impose a considerable burden on patients.

Propofol-induced transient arginine vasopressin deficiency [PDF]
Endocrinology, Diabetes & Metabolism Case ReportsWe describe and characterise the case of a 26-year-old female undergoing surgery for a right-sided sinonasal alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma who developed profound, transient arginine vasopressin deficiency (AVP-D, formerly central diabetes insipidus (DI ...

Copeptin analysis in endocrine disorders
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2023 Copeptin is cleaved from the same precursor as arginine vasopressin and is released in equimolar amounts with arginine vasopressin from the posterior pituitary in response to the same stimuli.

Revista da Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina Tropical, 2022 Background: Behavioral changes in Rattus norvegicus infected with two strains of Toxoplasma gondii (ME49 and VEG) were investigated. Methods: Rats were evaluated for motor activity and aversion or attraction to cat urine 60 days after infection. After

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2023 Background Coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) predicts mortality after ST‐elevation–myocardial infarction (STEMI). Arginine vasopressin (AVP) may be implicated, but data in humans are lacking, and no study has investigated the link between arginine
