Vasopressin V2 receptor/bioligand interactions
Letters in Peptide Science, 1998We predict some essential interactions between the V2 vasopressin renal receptor (V2R) and its agonists [Arg8]vasopressin (AVP) and [D-Arg8]vasopressin (DAVP), and the non-peptide antagonist OPC-31260. V2R controls antidiuresis and belongs to the superfamily of heptahelical transmembrane (7TM) G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). The receptor was built,

Palmitoylation of the V2 Vasopressin Receptor
Molecular Pharmacology, 1997Palmitoylation of the V2 vasopressin receptor (V2R) and its functional role were investigated in transfected cells. Palmitoylation was assessed by incubating transfected cells with [3H]palmitic acid and immunoprecipitating the receptor with an antibody raised against a portion of the third intracellular loop of V2R.

Vasopressin Receptors in Voiding Dysfunction
2011Arginine vasopressin (AVP), also known as vasopressin or anti-diuretic hormone, is a neuropeptide produced in the hypothalamus. It is primarily responsible for osmoregulation and thus maintains body fluid homeostasis. It is also a potent vasoconstrictor, may have a role in higher cognitive functions and affects metabolism.

Solubilization of Vasopressin Receptors
1991Publisher Summary This chapter provides an overview of the solubilization of vasopressin receptors. Vasopressin is a neurohypophyseal hormone that includes antidiuresis, promotes glycogenolysis in the liver, and contracts vascular smooth muscle, thereby, raising blood pressure.

Vasopressin: Mechanisms of Receptor Activation
1983Publisher Summary Vasopressin exerts a large variety of biological effects such as increased glycogenolysis and neoglucogenesis by liver cells and increased corticotrophin release by the adenohypophysis. This chapter presents an overview of the available pharmacological and biochemical data on vasopressin receptors in mammals.
