Delay in desmopressin therapy: Disaster in waiting
There is little information on the onset of hypernatremia after withdrawal of desmopressin. We present a case of an elderly woman with central DI whose serum sodium jumped from 141 to 171 mEq/L after 48‐72 h of holding oral desmopressin. Based on this precipitous onset of DI crisis, we recommend not withholding desmopressin for more than 24 h. Abstract

Characterization of three vasopressin receptor 2 variants: an apparent polymorphism (V266A) and two loss-of-function mutations (R181C and M311V). [PDF]
Arginine vasopressin (AVP) is released from the posterior pituitary and controls water homeostasis. AVP binding to vasopressin V2 receptors (V2Rs) located on kidney collecting duct epithelial cells triggers activation of Gs proteins, leading to increased

Glucocorticoid regulation of diurnal spine plasticity in the murine ventromedial prefrontal cortex
In mice, the core clock gene Per1 is expressed rhythmically within the ventromedial prefrontal cortex (vmPFC). Deep layer pyramidal neurons within the vmPFC exhibit a diurnal rhythm of dendritic spine density. Both Per1 expression and dendritic spine density are increased during the active phase along with the diurnal peak of glucocorticoid (GC ...
