New Topics in Vasopressin Receptors and Approach to Novel Drugs: Role of the Vasopressin Receptor in Psychological and Cognitive Functions

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2009
Arginine vasopressin (AVP) is a neurohypophyseal peptide best known as an antidiuretic hormone. AVP receptors have been classified into three subtypes: V1a, V1b, and V2 receptors.

Bone: An Acute Buffer of Plasma Sodium during Exhaustive Exercise?

open access: yes, 2013
Both hyponatremia and osteopenia separately have been well documented in endurance athletes. Although bone has been shown to act as a “sodium reservoir” to buffer severe plasma sodium derangements in animals, recent data have suggested a similar function

Nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI): clinical, laboratory and genetic characterization of five Brazilian patients

open access: yesClinics, 2009
INTRODUCTION: Nephrogenic diabetes insipidus is characterized by a lack of response in the distal nephron to the antidiuretic hormone arginine vasopressin.

Skeletal muscle: a significant novel neurohypophyseal hormone-secreting organ [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Vasopressin (arg8-vasopressin) and oxytocin are closely relalated hormones, synthesized as pre-hormones in the magnocellular neurons of the paraventricular Q6 and supraoptic nuclei of the hypothalamus.

Multiphase management of sodium imbalance following traumatic brain injury: a case-based review

open access: yesBMC Pediatrics
Background This review article discusses a case of sodium imbalance and fluid dysregulation in a patient with traumatic brain injury (TBI), progressing through phases including mannitol-induced osmotic diuresis, arginine vasopressin deficiency (central ...

Morphofunctional Alterations of the Hypothalamus and Social Behavior in Autism Spectrum Disorders

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2020
An accumulating body of evidence indicates a tight relationship between the endocrine system and abnormal social behavior. Two evolutionarily conserved hypothalamic peptides, oxytocin and arginine-vasopressin, because of their extensively documented ...

Role of protein kinase C in inhibition of renin release caused by vasoconstrictors [PDF]

open access: yes, 1986
It was the aim of the present study to get insight into some of the intracellular mechanisms by which the vasoconstrictor hormones angiotensin II (ANG II), arginine vasopressin (AVP), and norepinephrine (NE) inhibit renin release from renal ...

Effect of oxytocin on free intracellular Ca2+ levels and progesterone release by human granulosa-lutein cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
Oxytocin and its receptor are found in the corpus luteum in a variety of species, including the human. In the present study we used fura-2 microfluorimetry to investigate whether activation of the oxytocin receptor of cultured human granulosa-lutein ...

Association of Polymorphism of Arginine-Vasopressin Receptor 1A (AVPR1a) Gene With Trust and Reciprocity

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2019
Oxytocin (OXT) is known to play an important role in trust, whereas the involvement of other peptide hormones has not been evaluated. In this study, we focused on microsatellite polymorphisms in the intron of the arginine-vasopressin receptor 1a (AVPR1a)
