Presence of pKa Perturbations Among Homeodomain Residues Facilitates DNA Binding [PDF]

arXiv, 2009
Homeodomain containing proteins are a broad class of DNA binding proteins that are believed to primarily function as transcription factors. Electrostatics interactions have been demonstrated to be critical for the binding of the homeodomain to DNA. An examination of the electrostatic state of homeodomain residues involved in DNA phosphate binding has ...

A Newly Devised Vasopressin Drip Protocol in the Management of Chronic Central Diabetes Insipidus During Facial Transplantation Surgery

AACE Clinical Case Reports, 2018
: Objective: Titration of desmopressin can be challenging during complex, lengthy surgical procedures in patients with chronic central diabetes insipidus (DI). Arginine vasopressin (AVP) may be the preferred treatment modality in these settings.

The Inactivation of Neurohypophyseal Hormones by the Toad Bladder [PDF]

, 1962
The urinary bladder of the toad, Bufo marinus, was homogenized and the particle-free supernatant fraction prepared. Incubation of this fraction with the hormones, oxytocin, arginine vasopressin, lysine vasopressin, and oxytocin ring amide caused their ...

New Topics in Vasopressin Receptors and Approach to Novel Drugs: Role of the Vasopressin Receptor in Psychological and Cognitive Functions

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2009
Arginine vasopressin (AVP) is a neurohypophyseal peptide best known as an antidiuretic hormone. AVP receptors have been classified into three subtypes: V1a, V1b, and V2 receptors.

Nephrogenic Syndrome of Inappropriate Antidiuresis

International Journal of Pediatrics, 2012
Mutations in the vasopressin V2 receptor gene are responsible for two human tubular disorders: X-linked congenital nephrogenic diabetes insipidus, due to a loss of function of the mutant V2 receptor, and the nephrogenic syndrome of inappropriate ...

Angiotensin II and Aldosterone Increase with Fasting in Breeding Adult Male Northern Elephant Seals (Mirounga angustirostris) [PDF]

, 2006
The renin‐angiotensin‐aldosterone system (RAAS) appears to contribute significantly to osmoregulation of fasting northern elephant seal (Mirounga angustirostris) pups; however, RAAS has not been characterized in fasting adult seals. Therefore, this study
