THE DEVELOPMENT OF A RADIOIMMUNOASSAY FOR ARGININE VASOPRESSIN

Acta Endocrinologica, 1976
ABSTRACT The development of a sensitive and specific radioimmunoassay for vasopressin is described. Antibodies were successfully produced following the coupling of synthetic arginine vasopressin with bovine serum albumin carried out with carbodiimide.

Arginine vasopressin in Cushing's disease

The Lancet, 1990
Bilateral simultaneous blood samples were taken from the inferior petrosal sinuses of nine patients with Cushing's disease for measurement of adrenocorticotropin (ACTH), vasopressin (AVP), prolactin, growth hormone, luteinising hormone (LH), and follicle stimulating hormone (FSH).

Arginine-vasopressin in essential hypernatremia

Journal of Endocrinological Investigation, 1986
Dynamics of AVP secretion in a 14-year-old girl with essential hypernatremia, psychomotor retardation and optic nerve coloboma, are reported. Basal levels of AVP were similar to those of a control population, but disproportionately low in relation with natremies.

HUMAN PLATELET ARGININE VASOPRESSIN

Clinical Endocrinology, 1986
SUMMARYApproximately 90% of arginine vasopressin circulating in blood is associated with the platelets. Studies in six patients with cranial diabetes insipidus indicate that the platelet vasopressin originates in the hypothalamus and is taken up from plasma.

Blood–cerebrospinal fluid barrier to arginine-vasopressin, desmopressin and desglycinamide arginine-vasopressin in the dog

Journal of Endocrinology, 1982
Abstract The passage of 125I-labelled arginine-vasopressin (AVP) and its analogues desmopressin (DDAVP) and desglycinamide arginine-vasopressin (DGAVP) into cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) has been studied in the dog. After intravenous injection or infusion of these peptides radioactive sustances were found in the CSF in amounts ranging ...

Arginine vasopressin response to hypertonicity in hypertension studied by arginine vasopressin assay in unextracted plasma

Journal of Hypertension, 1992
To investigate whether plasma osmolality (Posm)-plasma arginine vasopressin (PAVP) response relationships with particular characteristics of sensitivity, gain or response pattern (linear/non-linear) occur more frequently in hypertensive than normotensive subjects.Analysis of Posm-PAVP curves observed in individual normotensive and hypertensive subjects

Effect of TRH on Plasma Arginine Vasopressin

Hormone Research, 2008
Effect of thyrotropic releasing hormone (TRH) on plasma arginine vasopressin (AVP) was studied in human subjects. All 7 normal controls and 2 hypothyrotropic hypothyroid subjects failed to show any rise of AVP on TRH administration. The 4 primary hypothyroid subjects had elevated basal AVP level and showed further elevation on TRH administration.

Arginine Vasopressin as a Thyrotropin-Releasing Hormone

Science, 1987
Although hypothyroidism (with concomitant increased levels of thyroid-stimulating hormone) has been associated with elevated plasma vasopressin, the role that vasopressin plays in controlling thyroid-stimulating hormone secretion from the adenohypophysis is not understood.

Functional activity of vasopressin analog desglycinamide-arginine-vasopressin

Biology Bulletin, 2006
Original and published data on the functional activity of neurohypophyseal hormone vasopressin and its analog DGAVP were analyzed with a particular focus on the pattern of the peptide effect on the hemostatic system. The effects of the natural hormone and its synthetic analog on some indices of coagulation and fibrinolysis were compared. The effects of

Radioimmunoassay of Arginine Vasopressin in Human Plasma

The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 1973
ABSTRACT A highly sensitive specific radioimmunoassay (RIA) method for the measurement of arginine vasopressin (AVP) is described. The sensitivity of the assay is 0.1 pg/ml. A simple extraction technique from plasma is described with a consistent recovery of about 65–70%, and without alteration in the immunoreactivity of the extracted hormone.
