Copeptin under glucagon stimulation [PDF]

open access: yesEndocrine, 2015
Stimulation of growth hormone (GH) and adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) secretion by glucagon is a standard procedure to assess pituitary dysfunction but the pathomechanism of glucagon action remains unclear. As arginine vasopressin (AVP) may act on the release of both, GH and ACTH, we tested here the role of AVP in GST by measuring a stable ...

Copeptin in the Differential Diagnosis of Hyponatremia [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2009
AbstractBackground: Treatment of patients with hyponatremia varies widely; thus, convenient diagnostic parameters are needed to guide the correct treatment strategy. This study was designed to evaluate the diagnostic potential of copeptin, the C-terminal part of provasopressin, as a new marker in the differential diagnosis of hyponatremia.Methods: In ...

Copeptin Hormone Concentrations in Dogs with Heart Disease and Relationship with Antidiuretic Hormone

open access: yesAnimals
Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) is upregulated in dogs with cardiac disease. However, measurement of ADH is impractical in a clinical setting. Copeptin is co-secreted with ADH, making it a potential biomarker of ADH secretion.

Investigation of possible underlying mechanisms behind water-induced glucose reduction in adults with high copeptin

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Elevated copeptin, a surrogate marker of vasopressin, is linked to low water intake and increased diabetes risk. Water supplementation in habitual low-drinkers with high copeptin significantly lowers both fasting plasma (fp) copeptin and glucose.

Vasopressin and copeptin

open access: yes, 2022
The hormone vasopressin is essential for the human body. Vasopressin’s ability to preserve water, by decreasing urine production by the kidneys, is vital to maintain homeostasis. In addition to this well-known effect, vasopressin is implicated to have widespread effects on various other regulatory processes.

Copeptin predicts coronary artery disease cardiovascular and total mortality.

open access: yes, 2016
In a middle-aged population, it was recently shown that the stable vasopressin marker plasma copeptin (copeptin) predicts development of diabetes mellitus, diabetic heart disease and death.

Prognostic and diagnostic significance of copeptin in acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and acute heart failure: data from the ACE 2 study

open access: yesRespiratory Research, 2017
Background Copeptin is a novel biomarker that predicts mortality in lower respiratory tract infections and heart failure (HF), but the diagnostic value of copeptin in acute dyspnea and the prognostic significance of copeptin in acute exacerbation of ...
