Use of 'Vaptans' in treatment of hyponatremia

Türk Kardiyoloji Derneği Arşivi, 2015
Hyponatremia is the most prevalent electrolyte imbalance, and may be present in up to 30% of hospitalized patients. It is an important predictor of in-hospital mortality.

The Inositol- 1,4,5=Trisphosphate System Is Involved in Rapid Effects of Aldosterone in Human Mononuclear Leukocytes [PDF]

, 1993
There is increasing evidence for rapid steroid action on electrolyte transport in human mononuclear leukocytes (HML). In HML, aldosterone stimulates the Na+/H+ antiporter within a few minutes. Because a variety of hormones and growth factors activate the

The physiological role of AT1 receptors in the ventrolateral medulla

Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2000
Neurons in the rostral and caudal parts of the ventrolateral medulla (VLM) play a pivotal role in the regulation of sympathetic vasomotor activity and blood pressure.

Effects of CSF hormones and ionic composition on salt/water metabolism [PDF]

This collaborative agreement between Drs. Severs and Keil began in 1981, arising from a continuing interest in the issue of what, exactly, are the consequences of headward fluid shifts during manned spaceflight.

Inflammation and vasopressin hypersecretion in aging

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.

The diversity of abnormal hormone receptors in adrenal Cushing's syndrome allows novel pharmacological therapies

Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2000
Recent studies from several groups have indicated that abnormal or ectopic expression and function of adrenal receptors for various hormones may regulate cortisol production in ACTH-independent hypercortisolism.

Vasopressin and oxytocin excite BNST neurons via oxytocin receptors, which reduce anxious arousal

Cell Reports
Summary: Interoceptive signals dynamically interact with the environment to shape appropriate defensive behaviors. Hypothalamic hormones arginine-vasopressin (AVP) and oxytocin (OT) regulate physiological states, including water and electrolyte balance ...

Gender-Specific Protection from Microvessel Rarefaction in Female Hypertensive Rats [PDF]

, 1998
Epidemiologic studies reveal that women have a significantly lower age-adjusted morbidity and mortality from cardiovascular disease than men, suggesting that gender is a cardiovascular disease risk factor.

Regulation of capacitative and non-capacitative Ca2+ entry in A7r5 vascular smooth muscle cells

Biological Research, 2004
A capacitative Ca2+ entry (CCE) pathway, activated by depletion of intracellular Ca2+ stores, is thought to mediate much of the Ca2+ entry evoked by receptors that stimulate phospholipase C (PLC).

Gene regulation of vasopressin and vasopressin receptors in cancer

Experimental 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).
