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

Vasopressin regulates the growth of the biliary epithelium in polycystic liver disease [PDF]
, 2016 The neurohypophysial hormone arginine vasopressin (AVP) acts by three distinct receptor subtypes: V1a, V1b, and V2. In the liver, AVP is involved in ureogenesis, glycogenolysis, neoglucogenesis and regeneration. No data exist about the presence of AVP in

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 ...

The Effect of Renal Function and Hemodialysis Treatment on Plasma Vasopressin and Copeptin Levels
Kidney International Reports, 2017 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.

Anaesthesia and Intensive Care, 2001 Vasopressin (antidiuretic hormone) is emerging as a potentially major advance in the treatment of a variety of shock states. Increasing interest in the clinical use of vasopressin has resulted from the recognition of its importance in the endogenous response to shock and from advances in understanding of its mechanism of action.
