Autosomal dominant familial neurohypophyseal diabetes insipidus caused by a mutation in the arginine-vasopressin II gene in four generations of a Korean family [PDF]
Autosomal dominant neurohypophyseal diabetes insipidus is a rare form of central diabetes insipidus that is caused by mutations in the vasopressin-neurophysin II (AVP-NPII) gene.

Entropic stabilization of proteins and its proteomic consequences [PDF]
We report here a new entropic mechanism of protein thermostability due to residual dynamics of rotamer isomerization in native state. All-atom simulations show that Lysines have much greater number of accessible rotamers than Arginines in folded states of proteins.

Effect of vasopressin 1b receptor blockade on the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal response of chronically stressed rats to a heterotypic stressor [PDF]
Exposure to chronic restraint (CR) modifies the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal (HPA) axis response to subsequent acute stressors with adaptation of the response to a homotypic and sensitization of the response to a heterotypic stressor. Since vasopressin

Rats infected with the protozoan Toxoplasma gondii exhibit a reduced aversion to cat odor. This behavioral change is thought to increase trophic transmission of the parasite. Infected male rats also show a greater testicular synthesis of testosterone and

Analysis and modeling of low frequency local field oscillations in a hippocampus circuit under osmotic challenge: the possible role of arginine vasopressin circuit for hippocampal function [PDF]
Electrophysiological time series were taken simultaneously in two locations in the hippocampus of a rat brain previously described as receiving innervation from the osmosensitive vasopressinergic neurons of the hypothalamus. A hyperosmotic saline solution injection was administered during the time of the experiment.

Hypothalamus sympathetic norepinephrine inhibits regeneration of articular cartilage. Mechanical loading on bone during animal activity elevates PGE2 skeletal interoception to promote an anabolic renewal of the superficial membrane by downregulation of norepinephrine for articular cartilage proper thickness and integrity.

Use of 'Vaptans' in treatment of hyponatremia
Hyponatremia is the most prevalent electrolyte imbalance, and may be present in up to 30% of hospitalized patients. It is an important predictor of in-hospital mortality.

Sugar‐sensing swodkoreceptors and swodkocrine signaling
Sugar‐sensing swodkoreceptors that trigger swodkocrine signaling. Abstract Sugars are one of the major metabolites and are essential for nucleic acid synthesis and energy production. In addition, sugars can act as signaling molecules. To study sugar signaling at the systemic level, there is an urgent need to systematically identify sugar‐sensing ...
