A Subcircuit in the Suprachiasmatic Nucleus Generates Wakefulness

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies a sub‐circuit within the circadian pacemaker suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) that promotes arousal. This sub‐circuit is labeled by the clock output molecule mWAKE, which suppresses its excitability in a time‐dependent manner. mWAKE‐expressing cells in the SCN (SCNmWAKE cells) project to the subparaventricular zone (SPZ) to mediate ...

Vasopressin V2 receptor antagonists [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Molecular Endocrinology, 2002
Hyponatremia, whether due to the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH) or disorders of water retention such as congestive heart failure and cirrhosis, is a very common problem encountered in the care of medical patients. To date, available treatment modalities for disorders of excess arginine vasopressin (AVP) secretion or ...

ALKBH5‐Mediated M6A Demethylation of G3BP1 Attenuates Ferroptosis Via Cytoplasmic Retention of YBX1/p53 in Diabetic Myocardial Ischemia‐Reperfusion Injury

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ALKBH5 promoted G3BP1 expression via m⁶A methylation at sites 142/173. G3BP1 interacts with YBX1 and p53, reducing their nuclear translocation and decreasing p53‐mediated SLC7A11 repression. This inhibites cardiomyocyte ferroptosis and mitigates myocardial damage during diabetic ischemia‐reperfusion injury.

Noncanonical effects of vasopressin in angiogenesis

open access: yesВавиловский журнал генетики и селекции, 2019
The molecular action of vasopressin depends on the localization of hormonal receptors. The basic physiological effects of vasopressin are manifested in the blood vasculature, renal inner medulla and brain.

Gene regulation of vasopressin and vasopressin receptors in cancer

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, 2000
It is proposed that neuropeptide production by tumours is an important part of a special process of oncogenic transformation rather than a pre‐existing condition of progenitor cells; this concept is called Selective Tumour gene Expression of Peptides essential for Survival (STEPS).

Mechanism of vasopressin natriuresis in the dog: role of vasopressin receptors and prostaglandins [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Physiology-Regulatory, Integrative and Comparative Physiology, 1998
Renal effects of physiological amounts of vasopressin were studied in conscious dogs during servocontrolled overhydration (2% body wt). During infusion of vasopressin (50 pg ⋅ min−1⋅ kg body wt−1), plasma vasopressin concentration increased to 2.30 ± 0.20 pg/ml compared with 0.12 ± 0.03 pg/ml during control (water diuresis).

New Topics in Vasopressin Receptors and Approach to Novel Drugs: Vasopressin and Pain Perception

open access: yesJournal 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: a possible link between hypoxia and hypertension

open access: yesExploration of Medicine, 2022
Cardiovascular and respiratory diseases are frequently associated with transient and prolonged hypoxia, whereas hypoxia exerts pro-hypertensive effects, through stimulation of the sympathetic system and release of pressor endocrine factors.

Comparative and Evolutionary Physiology of Vasopressin/ Oxytocin-Type Neuropeptide Signaling in Invertebrates

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2020
The identification of structurally related hypothalamic hormones that regulate blood pressure and diuresis (vasopressin, VP; CYFQNCPRG-NH2) or lactation and uterine contraction (oxytocin, OT; CYIQNCPLG-NH2) was a major advance in neuroendocrinology ...

Management of hypotension in dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker overdose: The role of high‐dose insulin therapy

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Amlodipine poisoning is a leading cause of cardiovascular medication‐related deaths, commonly managed with high‐dose insulin (HDI) therapy. However, HDI is a vasodilator that is counterproductive in managing vasoplegia. We aim to study HDI therapy in patients with hypotension following dihydropyridine calcium channel antagonist (CCA) overdose ...
