A Subcircuit in the Suprachiasmatic Nucleus Generates Wakefulness
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]
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 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
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
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]
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
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
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.

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 ...

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 ...
