Baroreflex loading maneuvers do not suppress increased plasma arginine vasopressin in patients with congestive heart failure [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
Nonspecific baroreflex loading maneuvers such as head-down till readily suppress stimulated arginine vasopressin levels in normal humans. To test the hypothesis that the increased arginine vasopressin levels in patients with congestive heart failure ...

Photoaffinity labeling of the V1 vasopressin receptor in plasma membranes from rat liver

open access: yes, 1985
Photoaffinity labeling experiments were performed with membranes from rat liver containing V1 vasopressin receptors. Photoreactive analogues of [1-beta-mercaptopropionic acid]vasopressin [( Mpa1], vasopressin, or deamino-vasopressin) retaining a high ...

Arginine vasopressin enhances GABAergic inhibition of cardiac parasympathetic neurons in the nucleus ambiguus

open access: yes, 2002
Previous studies have shown that arginine vasopressin is an important neuropeptide that can modulate the reflex control of blood pressure and heart rate.

Transduction of the arginine-vasopressin signal in skeletal myogenic cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
Arginine vasopressin (AVP) induced concentration-dependent (10(-9) to 10(-6) M) stimulation of inositol phosphate production and a biphasic increment of cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) in skeletal myogenic cells in culture. These effects were

The effect of some structural changes in the molecule of vasopressin on the duration of antidiuretic action

open access: yes, 1984
The effect of two structural variations in the molecule of [8-D-arginine]deamino-vasopressin on the prolongation of the antidiuretic action of the analogues in non-anesthetised rats was studied.

L-arginine deprivation impairs Leishmania major-specific T-cell responses. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The amino acid L-arginine plays a crucial role in the regulation of immune responses. We have recently shown that uncontrolled replication of Leishmania parasites at the site of pathology correlates with high levels of arginase activity in nonhealing ...

Plasma copeptin levels before and during exogenous arginine vasopressin infusion in patients with advanced vasodilatory shock

open access: yes, 2010
Plasma copeptin levels before and during exogenous arginine vasopressin infusion (AVP) were evaluated, and the value of copeptin levels before AVP therapy to predict complications during AVP therapy and outcome in vasodilatory shock patients was ...

Use of Arginine Vasopressin in the Absence of Diabetes Insipidus: A Case Study

open access: yes, 2000
This case study details the use of arginine vasopressin in a pediatric organ donor. Although arginine vasopressin is primarily administered for its antidiuretic effects in the treatment of diabetes insipidus, the study demonstrates the often overlooked ...

[Arginine-vasopressin in septic and vasodilatorial shock]

open access: yes, 2006
Current therapy of septic/vasodilatory cardiovascular failure includes volume resuscitation and infusion of inotropic and vasopressor agents. Norepinephrine is the first-line vasoconstrictor, and can stabilize hemodynamic variables in most patients ...

A comparison of the activities of arginine-vasopressin and lysine-vasopressin on the kidney functions of normal conscious dogs

open access: yes, 1957
1. Observations were made on conscious dogs of the effect of oxytocin and of arginine-vand lysine-vasopressins on the rate of urine flow, on the excretion rate of sodium and potassium, and on the clearance rate of diodone and creatinine Both during water-
