Vasopressin is one of the most important endogenously released stress hormones during shock. In this review, studies published in the past year that add to our understanding of the use of vasopressin in the ICU are discussed.Endogenous vasopressin levels are inappropriately low in adults with severe sepsis but not in children with meningococcal septic ...

The biological effects of arginine vasopressin (AVP) are mediated by three receptor subtypes: the V1a and V1b receptors that activate phospholipases via Gq/11, and the V2 receptor that activates adenylyl cyclase by interacting with Gs. Isolation of the cDNAs encoding the V1a and V1b receptor subtypes explained the tissue variability of V1 antagonist ...

Vasopressin and vasopressin antagonists in heart failure and hyponatremia
Current Heart Failure Reports, 2008Increased synthesis of arginine vasopressin (AVP) plays a critical role in fluid retention and hyponatremia in patients with heart failure. The AVP receptor antagonists constitute a new class of agents that are promising in the management of hyponatremia and congestion.

Vasopressins (VPs) are mammalian VP family nonapeptides. VPs are composed of an intramolecular ring structure flanked by two cysteine residues and a C-terminal extension with a basic amino acid residue at position 8. VP causes antidiuresis, blood pressure elevation, stress response, metabolic actions, and various behaviors through three VP receptors. A

Vasopressin studies in the rat
Pfl�gers Archiv f�r die Gesamte Physiologie des Menschen und der Tiere, 1968A modification of Jeffers method for estimating antidiuretic hormone in body fluids is described. With this modification it is possible to detect antidiuretic activity corresponding to 0.25 μU of Vasopressin.

Renal microvascular effects of vasopressin and vasopressin antagonists
American Journal of Physiology-Renal Physiology, 1989The effects of vasopressin (AVP) and vasopressin antagonists on lumen diameters of cortical afferent and efferent arterioles isolated from rabbit kidneys were examined. Over a concentration range of 10(-14) to 10(-7) M, AVP had no effect on lumen diameters of afferent arterioles, although the arterioles were responsive to norepinephrine.

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 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.

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.
