Discrimination and Quantification of Glomerular Receptor Subtypes for Atrial Natriuretic Factor (Anf) [PDF]
Binding sites for atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) were determined on isolated rat glomeruli as well as on glomerular membranes. To define optimal conditions, binding of ANF was investigated varying incubation time, temperature and protein concentration ...

Novel and biocompatible photoactivatable oxytocin and vasopressin probes, utilising state‐of‐the‐art photocages, remain inactive in the dark. Light exposure facilitates rapid spatiotemporal receptor activation and phospholipase C (PLC)‐mediated downstream signalling. Figure created in https://BioRender.com.

Glucocorticoids rapidly inhibit oxytocin-stimulated adrenocorticotropin release from rat anterior pituitary cells, without modifying intracellular calcium transients [PDF]
Glucocorticoid hormones suppress the secretion of ACTH evoked by secretagogues such as CRF and arginine vasopressin. In this study, we investigated the effects of glucocorticoids on ACTH release induced by oxytocin (OT) and on intracellular free calcium ...

Vasopressin receptor-mediated endocytosis in cells transfected with V1-type vasopressin receptors
We examined the process of receptor-mediated endocytosis in A-9 lung fibroblast and chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells transfected with the recently cloned vasopressin V1a receptor (51). We used a fluorescent labeled vasopressin analog (rhodamine-mercaptopropionic acid lysine vasopressin) and radiolabeled vasopressin to examine this process in the two ...

A receptor-based analysis of local ecosystems in the human brain. [PDF]
BackgroundAs a complex system, the brain is a self-organizing entity that depends on local interactions among cells. Its regions (anatomically defined nuclei and areas) can be conceptualized as cellular ecosystems, but the similarity of their functional ...

Vasopressin receptors in health and disease
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.

Aim Hyponatremia is a common yet potentially serious adverse event associated with antidepressants. Identifying the antidepressant class with the least risk of hyponatremia would improve patient safety. Methods Using electronic medical records from 15 hospitals standardized into Observational Medical Outcomes Partnership Common Data Model (2003–2023 ...

The release of adrenocorticotropin (ACTH) from the corticotrophs is controlled principally by vasopressin and corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH). Oxytocin may augment the release of ACTH under certain conditions, whereas atrial natriuretic peptide ...

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 ...
