Aldosterone Contributes to Vasopressin Escape through Changes in Water and Urea Transport
Biomedicines, 2023 Hyponatremia (hypo-osmolality) is a disorder of water homeostasis due to abnormal renal diluting capacity. The body limits the degree to which serum sodium concentration falls through a mechanism called “vasopressin escape”.

Kidney collecting duct cells make vasopressin in response to NaCl-induced hypertonicity
JCI Insight, 2022 Vasopressin has traditionally been thought to be produced by the neurohypophyseal system and then released into the circulation where it regulates water homeostasis.

Vasopressin mediates fructose-induced metabolic syndrome by activating the V1b receptor
JCI Insight, 2021 Subjects with obesity frequently have elevated serum vasopressin levels, noted by measuring the stable analog, copeptin. Vasopressin acts primarily to reabsorb water via urinary concentration. However, fat is also a source of metabolic water, raising the

Vasopressin Loading for Refractory Septic Shock: A Preliminary Analysis of a Case Series
Frontiers in Medicine, 2021 Background: Vasopressin is one of the strong vasopressor agents associated with ischemic events. Responses to the administration of vasopressin differ among patients with septic shock. Although the administration of a high dose of vasopressin needs to be

Kidney International, 1974 Antidiuretic hormone liberated the vertebrates from their aqueous environment, and permitted them to establish themselves on dry land. The combination of sensitive volume and osmoreceptors, a pituitary secretory apparatus which can vary its output from virtually zero to high levels in a short space of time, and receptor cells functioning in the ...

Apelin and Vasopressin: The Yin and Yang of Water Balance
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2021 Apelin, a (neuro)vasoactive peptide, plays a prominent role in controlling body fluid homeostasis and cardiovascular functions. Experimental data performed in rodents have shown that apelin has an aquaretic effect via its central and renal actions.

Vasopressin and Vasopressin Receptor Antagonists [PDF]
Electrolyte & Blood Pressure, 2008 Vasopressin, a neurohypophyseal peptide hormone, is the endogenous agonist at V1a, V1b, and V2 receptors. The most important physiological function of vasopressin is the maintenance of water homeostasis through interaction with V2 receptors in the kidney.

Dexmedetomidine does not produce vasocontraction on human isolated gastroepiploic artery [PDF]
Korean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2011 BackgroundRecently, the addition of dexmedetomidine to sedation regimens after cardiac surgery had been reported and there is a possibility that dexmedetomidine can cause vasoconstriction.

Effects of arginine vasopressin on migration and respiratory burst activity in human leukocytes
Open Medicine, 2018 Arginine vasopressin can bind to high-affinity vasopressin V1a receptors in human leukocytes. This study aims to investigate the effects of arginine vasopressin on migration and chemotaxis of neutrophils and oxygen free radical release by human ...
