Fibrillar aggregations of pathogenic pro-vasopressin mutants [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Diabetes insipidus is a disregulation of water homeostasis characterized by large fluid turnover in the kidney. Water homeostasis is regulated by the hormone vasopressin by increasing reapsorption of water in the renal collecting duct. Autosomal dominant

Differential contributions of vasopressin V1A and oxytocin receptors in the amygdala to pain-related behaviors in rats

open access: yesMolecular Pain, 2016
Neuroplastic changes in the amygdala account for emotional-affective aspects of pain and involve neuropeptides such as calcitonin gene-related peptide and corticotropin-releasing factor. Another neuropeptide system, central arginine vasopressin, has been

Protocol for a randomised controlled trial of VAsopressin versus Noradrenaline as Initial therapy in Septic sHock (VANISH). [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
INTRODUCTION: Vasopressin is an alternative vasopressor in the management of septic shock. It spares catecholamine use but whether it improves outcome remains uncertain.

High copeptin concentrations in umbilical cord blood after vaginal delivery and birth acidosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
CONTEXT: The pituitary-secreted nonapeptide arginine-vasopressin (AVP) is unstable and therefore unsuited for diagnostic use, but its secretion can be estimated by measuring copeptin, the C-terminal portion of the AVP precursor (pro-AVP).

Vasopressin and its analogues in shock states: a review

open access: yesAnnals of Intensive Care, 2020
Activation of arginine–vasopressin is one of the hormonal responses to face vasodilation-related hypotension. Released from the post-pituitary gland, vasopressin induces vasoconstriction through the activation of V1a receptors located on vascular smooth ...

Anesthetic experience of frontotemporal dementia patient with severe autonomic dysfunction: a case report [PDF]

open access: yesKorean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2017
Anesthetic experience in frontotemporal dementia (FTD) with severe hypotension associated autonomic dysfunction has not yet been reported. Here in case, we report on the case of treatment with vasopressin to refractory hypotension in FTD patient.

Drugs for the treatment of central diabetes insipidus: historical background and modern opportunities

open access: yesОжирение и метаболизм, 2017
Central diabetes insipidus is a severe disease with disturbance of arginine vasopressin secretion, which leads to excretion of large amounts of hypotonic urine.

The role of copeptin as a diagnostic and prognostic biomarker for risk stratification in the emergency department

open access: yesBMC Medicine, 2012
The hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis is activated in response to stress. One of the activated hypothalamic hormones is arginine vasopressin, a hormone involved in hemodynamics and osmoregulation.

Sex differences in the effects of MDMA (ecstasy) on plasma copeptin in healthy subjects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
BACKGROUND:3,4-Methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA, ecstasy) misuse is associated with hyponatremia particularly in women. Hyponatremia is possibly due to inappropriate secretion of plasma arginine vasopressin (AVP).

Hyponatremia, Arginine Vasopressin Dysregulation, and Vasopressin Receptor Antagonism [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Nephrology, 2006
Hyponatremia is often associated with arginine vasopressin (AVP) dysregulation that is regulated by the hypothalamo-neurohypophyseal tract in response to changes in plasma osmolality, commonly in patients with the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH).
