The novel desmopressin analogue [V4Q5]dDAVP inhibits angiogenesis, tumour growth and metastases in vasopressin type 2 receptor-expressing breast cancer models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Desmopressin (dDAVP) is a safe haemostatic agent with previously reported antitumour activity. It acts as a selective agonist for the V2 vasopressin membrane receptor (V2r) present on tumour cells and microvasculature.

Use of Desmopressin in Hyponatremia: Foe and Friend

open access: yesKidney Medicine, 2019
Use of desmopressin (1-deamino-8-d-arginine vasopressin; DDAVP), a synthetic vasopressin receptor agonist, has expanded in recent years. Desmopressin leads to renal water retention, and iatrogenic hyponatremia may result if fluid intake is not ...

Acquired von Willebrand syndrome in monoclonal gammopathy – A scoping review on hemostatic management

open access: yesResearch and Practice in Thrombosis and Haemostasis, 2021
Background Acquired von Willebrand syndrome (AVWS) has been associated with monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS), with limited data on its management. Methods We conducted a systematic literature search in Medline (Ovid), Embase, and

Arginine vasopressin, via activation of post-junctional V1 receptors, induces contractile effects in mouse distal colon [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The aim of this study was to analyze whether arginine vasopressin (AVP) may be considered a modulator of intestinal motility. In this view, we evaluated, in vitro, the effects induced by exogenous administration of AVP on the contractility of mouse ...

Altered agonist sensitivity of a mutant V2 receptor suggests a novel therapeutic strategy for nephrogenic diabetes insipidus. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Loss of function mutations of the type 2 vasopressin receptor (V2R) in kidney can lead to nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI). We studied a previously described, but uncharacterized mutation of V2R (N321K missense mutation) of an NDI patient.

Functional variation in the arginine vasopressin 2 receptor as a modifier of human plasma von Willebrand factor levels\ud [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Objectives: Stimulation of arginine vasopressin 2 receptor (V2R) with arginine vasopressin (AVP) results in a rise in von Willebrand factor (VWF) and factor VIII plasma levels.
