Involvement of the V2 vasopressin receptor in adaptation to limited water supply. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2009 Mammals adapted to a great variety of habitats with different accessibility to water. In addition to changes in kidney morphology, e.g. the length of the loops of Henle, several hormone systems are involved in adaptation to limited water supply, among ...

Therapeutic Potential of Vasopressin-Receptor Antagonists in Heart Failure
Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2014 .: Arginine vasopressin (AVP) is a 9-amino acid peptide that is secreted from the posterior pituitary in response to high plasma osmolality and hypotension.

Synthetic Vasopressin and Oxytocin Analogs and Their Potential Use in Hemorrhagic, Traumatic and Septic Shock: A Personal Perspective [PDF]
, 2017 As one of us has stated many years ago, “shock is a significant and sustained loss of effective circulating blood volume. It will eventuate in hypoperfusion of critical peripheral tissues, thus leading to a deficit in transcapillary exchange function in ...

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.

New Topics in Vasopressin Receptors and Approach to Novel Drugs: Vasopressin and Pain Perception
Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2009 Arginine vasopressin (AVP) activates three vasopressin receptors and it also has an agonistic activity on the oxytocin receptor. For an accurate description of the target receptor subtype(s) responsible for complex AVP and oxytocin actions, a careful ...

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”.

Effect of vasopressin 1b receptor blockade on the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal response of chronically stressed rats to a heterotypic stressor [PDF]
, 2009 Exposure to chronic restraint (CR) modifies the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal (HPA) axis response to subsequent acute stressors with adaptation of the response to a homotypic and sensitization of the response to a heterotypic stressor. Since vasopressin

Sex differences in the association between plasma copeptin and incident type 2 diabetes: the Prevention of Renal and Vascular Endstage Disease (PREVEND) study [PDF]
, 2012 AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: Vasopressin plays a role in osmoregulation, glucose homeostasis and inflammation. Therefore, plasma copeptin, the stable C-terminal portion of the precursor of vasopressin, has strong potential as a biomarker for the cardiometabolic ...

Vasopressin and its analogues in shock states: a review
Annals of Intensive Care, 2020 Activation of arginine–vasopressin is one of the hormonal responses to face vasodilation-related hypotension. Released from the post-pituitary gland, vasopressin induces vasoconstriction through the activation of V1a receptors located on vascular smooth ...

Metabolic effects of vasopressin in pathophysiology of diabetic kidney disease
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2023 The diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is the major cause of the chronic kidney disease (CKD). Enhanced plasma vasopressin (VP) levels have been associated with the pathophysiology of DKD and CKD.
