Inflammation and vasopressin hypersecretion in aging [PDF]

Frontiers in Endocrinology
Low-grade inflammation, both hypothalamic and systemic, sensitizes the neuroendocrine response to osmotic stimuli whose proximate cause is chronic underhydration common in older adults due to diminished thirst perception.

Vasopressin-to-oxytocin receptor crosstalk in the preoptic area underlying parental behaviors in male mice [PDF]

Nature Communications
The transition to parenthood brings significant changes in behavior toward offspring. For instance, in anticipation of their offspring, male mice shift from infanticidal to caregiving behaviors.

The Biology of Vasopressin

Biomedicines, 2021
Vasopressins are evolutionarily conserved peptide hormones. Mammalian vasopressin functions systemically as an antidiuretic and regulator of blood and cardiac flow essential for adapting to terrestrial environments.

Characterization of an Aplysia vasotocin signaling system and actions of posttranslational modifications and individual residues of the ligand on receptor activity

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2023
The vasopressin/oxytocin signaling system is present in both protostomes and deuterostomes and plays various physiological roles. Although there were reports for both vasopressin-like peptides and receptors in mollusc Lymnaea and Octopus, no precursor or

Expression of vasopressin and its receptors in migraine-related regions in CNS and the trigeminal system: influence of sex

The Journal of Headache and Pain, 2022
Background Hypothalamus is a key region in migraine attacks. In addition, women are disproportionately affected by migraine. The calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) system is an important key player in migraine pathophysiology. CGRP signaling could be

Terlipressin for the Prevention and Treatment of Renal Decline in Hepatorenal Syndrome: A Drug Profile

Gastroenterology Insights, 2023
Hepatorenal syndrome stands as one of several potential triggers of acute kidney injury in individuals grappling with either acute or persistent liver ailments. The nature of the decline in kidney function has led to the identification of two variants of

Vasopressin receptor antagonists [PDF]

Kidney International, 2006
The first non-peptide vasopressin receptor antagonist (VRA) was recently approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration, and several others are now in late stages of clinical development. Phase 3 trials indicate that these agents predictably reduce urine osmolality, increase electrolyte-free water excretion, and raise serum sodium ...

A case of pheochromocytoma crisis with persistent hypotension successfully managed with vasopressin

Urology Case Reports, 2021
We report the first case of pheochromocytoma crisis with hypotension that was successfully treated with vasopressin. A 64-year-old patient was diagnosed as pheochromocytoma crisis.

Blockade of vasopressin receptors reduces the threshold pressure of micturition reflex in female rats

Current Research in Physiology, 2022
The mechanisms involved in urinary bladder control are not fully understood, but it is well accepted that a complex central network is involved in micturition control.

Vasopressin and its analogues in shock states: a review

Annals of Intensive Care, 2020
Activation of arginine–vasopressin is one of the hormonal responses to face vasodilation-related hypotension. Released from the post-pituitary gland, vasopressin induces vasoconstriction through the activation of V1a receptors located on vascular smooth ...
