Tolvaptan induces body fluid loss and subsequent water conservation in normal rats
We have recently reported that the urea osmolyte-associated water conservation system is activated in fluid loss models such as high salt-induced natriuresis, renal injury-induced impaired renal concentrating ability, or skin barrier dysfunction-induced ...

Effectiveness of Tolvaptan Treatment in Hyponatremic Patients
Objective: Non-peptide vasopressin receptor antagonists (vaptans) are effective at increasing sodium in euvolemic and hypervolemic states and appear safe. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy of tolvaptan in euvolemic or hypervolemic hyponatremic patients.

Improving Postdischarge Outcomes in Acute Heart Failure [PDF]
The global burden that acute heart failure (AHF) carries has remained unchanged over the past several decades (1). European registries (2–5) showed that 1-year outcome rates remain unacceptably high (Table 1) and confirm that hospitalization for AHF ...

Background: Tolvaptan is a vasopressin type 2 receptor antagonist used in heart failure (HF) with refractory diuretic resistance. However, since tolvaptan is also ineffective in some HF patients with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), the identification ...

A model to predict disease progression in patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD): the ADPKD Outcomes Model. [PDF]
Background: Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is the leading inheritable cause of end-stage renal disease (ESRD); however, the natural course of disease progression is heterogeneous between patients.

Tolvaptan Attenuates Left Ventricular Fibrosis After Acute Myocardial Infarction in Rats
Tolvaptan, a non-peptide V2-receptor antagonist, is a newly developed diuretic agent. Recently, we reported that tolvaptan has diuretic as well as anti-inflammatory and anti-fibrotic actions in chronic heart failure.

Tolvaptan for the treatment of the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuresis (SIAD)
The syndrome of inappropriate antidiuresis (SIAD), the commonest cause of hyponatraemia, is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Tolvaptan, an oral vasopressin V2-receptor antagonist, leads through aquaresis to an increase in serum sodium
