New Topics in Vasopressin Receptors and Approach to Novel Drugs: Vasopressin and Pain Perception
Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2009 Arginine vasopressin (AVP) activates three vasopressin receptors and it also has an agonistic activity on the oxytocin receptor. For an accurate description of the target receptor subtype(s) responsible for complex AVP and oxytocin actions, a careful ...

Vasopressin receptors in health and disease
Kidney International, 1996 The molecular cloning and characterization of receptors for the nonapeptide hormone family vasopressin-oxytocin was rapidly followed by the identification of mutations in the V2 receptor gene segregating with the clinical phenotype in more than a hundred families with X-linked nephrogenic diabetes insipidus.

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 ...
