Serum Sodium Concentration During Arginine Vasopressin Infusion in Critically Ill Children

Children
Background: Intravenous arginine vasopressin is increasingly used for the treatment of critically ill children. It bears the risk of hyponatraemia with potential severe long-term sequelae, but data on hyponatraemia as a side effect of continuous ...

New Topics in Vasopressin Receptors and Approach to Novel Drugs: Vasopressin and Pain Perception

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2009
Arginine vasopressin (AVP) activates three vasopressin receptors and it also has an agonistic activity on the oxytocin receptor. For an accurate description of the target receptor subtype(s) responsible for complex AVP and oxytocin actions, a careful ...

Changing the name of diabetes insipidus: a position statement of the working group to consider renaming diabetes insipidus

Archives of Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2022
“What's in a name? That which we call a rose / By any other name would smell as sweet” (Juliet, from Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare). Shakespeare's implication is that a name is nothing but a word and it therefore represents a convention with no

T2T Genome Assembly and Multi‐Omics Data Reveal Terrestrial Adaptation and Mucus Biosynthesis in Tropical Leatherleaf Slug (Laevicaulis alte)

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A gap‐free genome assembly and multi‐omics comparison of the terrestrial slug Laevichaulis alte with an aquatic relative reveal that expansion of the VEGF family orchestrates mucus production, lipid metabolism, and immune defense—highlighting key molecular innovations for conquering life on land.

THE EFFECTS OF TWO ANALOGUES OF ARGININE‐VASOPRESSIN (ORNITHINE‐VASOPRESSIN AND DESAMINO‐D‐ARGININE‐VASOPRESSIN) ON KIDNEY FUNCTION IN SHEEP [PDF]

Quarterly Journal of Experimental Physiology and Cognate Medical Sciences, 1978
The effects of intravenous infusion of ornithine‐vasopressin (OVP) and desamino‐D‐arginine‐vasopressin (dDAVP) were studied in normal and hydrated Merino sheep. In normal sheep, OVP resulted in a diuresis, increased urinary sodium and potassium excretion, and a fall in the plasma potassium concentration.

New Topics in Vasopressin Receptors and Approach to Novel Drugs: Involvement of Vasopressin V1a and V1b Receptors in Nociceptive Responses and Morphine-Induced Effects

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2009
Arginine vasopressin (AVP) receptors have been classified into V1a, V1b, and V2 subtypes. Recent studies have demonstrated the involvement of AVP in anti-nociception and in morphine-induced anti-nociception.

A three-year-old boy with hypodipsic hypernatremia syndrome

The Pan African Medical Journal, 2018
We describe a three-year-old boy who had a growth and psychomotor retardation associated with inappropriate lack of thirst and vasopressin secretion in the presence of chronic plasma hyperosmolarity.

Prenatal betamethasone–postnatal N‐methyl‐D‐aspartic acid model of spasms: Update on mechanisms and treatments

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Infantile epilepsy spasms syndrome (IESS), formerly known as infantile spasms or West Syndrome, is a severe epilepsy syndrome affecting about 3 in 10,000 newborns in the United States. Characterized by clusters of epileptic spasms, interictal hypsarrhythmia, and developmental delays, IESS has diverse causes, including structural‐metabolic ...
