The Biology of Vasopressin [PDF]
Vasopressins are evolutionarily conserved peptide hormones. Mammalian vasopressin functions systemically as an antidiuretic and regulator of blood and cardiac flow essential for adapting to terrestrial environments.

Early adjunctive vasopressin was not associated with a lower 7-day risk of renal replacement therapy in norepinephrine-treated patients with cirrhosis: a target-trial-informed study with external replication [PDF]
BackgroundEarly adjunctive vasopressin can reduce catecholamine exposure in vasodilatory shock, but whether it prevents severe kidney failure in norepinephrine-treated patients with cirrhosis is uncertain.MethodsWe conducted a target-trial-informed ...

The Effect of Renal Function and Hemodialysis Treatment on Plasma Vasopressin and Copeptin Levels
Copeptin is increasingly used in epidemiological studies as a substitute for vasopressin. The effect of renal function per se on copeptin and vasopressin concentrations as well as their ratio have, however, not been well described.

Effects of vasopressin and antihyperkalemic treatments on hemodynamics, potassium concentration, and resuscitation success in a porcine hyperkalemic cardiac arrest model [PDF]
Vasopressin may improve blood flow during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in hyperkalemic cardiac arrest. This could enhance the delivery of antihyperkalemic treatments and improve potassium-lowering effects and resuscitation outcomes.

Water permeability of the kidney collecting ducts is regulated by the peptide hormone vasopressin. Between minutes and hours (short-term), vasopressin induces trafficking of the water channel protein aquaporin-2 to the apical plasma membrane of the ...

Resuscitation Using Liposomal Vasopressin in an Animal Model of Uncontrolled Hemorrhagic Shock. [PDF]
Current research suggests that administration of vasopressin to patients with uncontrolled hemorrhagic shock (UHS) can avoid the detrimental effects associated with aggressive fluid resuscitation.

OBJECTIVES:. Vasopressin is reported to retain vasoconstrictive activity in the setting of acidemia, but preclinical models are inconsistent and studies have not evaluated the clinical effectiveness of vasopressin based on arterial pH.

Copeptin analysis in endocrine disorders
Copeptin is cleaved from the same precursor as arginine vasopressin and is released in equimolar amounts with arginine vasopressin from the posterior pituitary in response to the same stimuli.

Glucocorticoid Receptor Maintains Vasopressin Responses in Kidney Collecting Duct Cells
Water permeability of the kidney collecting ducts is regulated in part by the amount of the molecular water channel protein aquaporin-2 (AQP2), whose expression, in turn, is regulated by the pituitary peptide hormone vasopressin.

Kidney collecting duct cells make vasopressin in response to NaCl-induced hypertonicity
Vasopressin has traditionally been thought to be produced by the neurohypophyseal system and then released into the circulation where it regulates water homeostasis.
