Vasopressin and Vasopressin Receptor Antagonists in Heart Failure
Cardiology in Review, 2009Antidiuretic hormone, also known as arginine vasopressin, is a hormone with a multitude of physiologic activities including the control of urinary free water excretion. Antidiuretic hormone also plays a role in vasoconstriction and has 3 receptors that have been identified.

Vasopressin metabolites: A link between vasopressin and memory?
1999The effects of endogenous metabolites of the neuropeptide vasopressin (VP) in behavioural tests led to the hypothesis that VP metabolites have a more selective function than VP. In contrast to VP, no peripheral effects have been found thus far with VP metabolites and their function seems to be associated with memory-related behaviour.

Vasopressin in Cardiovascular Control: Role of Circulating Vasopressin
Clinical Science, 1984Vasopressin has been shown to elicit vasoconstriction in unanaesthetized animals at plasma concentrations similar to those associated with its renal antidiuretic effect. The vasconstrictor effects of vasopressin do not normally translate into pressor responses until relatively high plasma concentrations are reached.

Mechanisms of Vasopressin Secretion
Hormone Research, 1992The magnocellular vasopressin system of the rat has been studied intensively in recent years. This review outlines the electrophysiological characteristics of vasopressin neurons, the characteristics of stimulus-secretion coupling in the neural lobe, and describes some of the major features of the neural regulation of this system which underlie ...

Vasopressin-Receptor Antagonists
Future Cardiology, 2010Despite a crucial role in body fluid homeostasis, elevated vasopressin levels can also be pathological in conditions such as congestive heart failure, liver cirrhosis and the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion. The result of elevated vasopressin is renal water retention and hyponatremia, a low serum sodium concentration ...

Vasopressine et angiogenèse [PDF]
Journal de la Société de Biologie, 2009 In adult mammals, the CNS vasculature remains essentially quiescent, excepted for specific pathologies. In the seventies, it was reported that proliferation of astrocytes and endothelial cells occurs within the hypothalamic magnocellular nuclei when strong metabolic activation of the vasopressinergic and oxytocinergic neurons was induced by prolonged ...
