Familial neurohypophysial diabetes insipidus (FNDI) characterized by progressive polyuria is mostly caused by mutations in the gene encoding neurophysin II (NPII), which is the carrier protein of the ...

Oxytocin, arginine vasopressin, lysine vasopressin, arginine vasotocin, as well as their cyclic and acyclic analogs, were studied by carbon-13 nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy in deuterium ...

Researchers from Gedeon Richter plc have reported the discovery of novel dual vasopressin V1A/V2 antagonist, drug candidates for arginine vasopressin (AVP) for the potential treatment of hyponatremia.

A previous study has shown that the stress responsive neurohormone arginine vasopressin (AVP) is activated in the amygdala during early withdrawal from cocaine. The present studies were undertaken to ...

Gestational diabetes insipidus is a rare, temporary pregnancy complication. It leads to increased urine output and more frequent urination due to the breakdown of a hormone called vasopressin.

As a heart fails, losing its ability to squeeze blood through the circulatory system, the body releases a neurohormone that interferes with the heart's best chance to improve contractility, a team ...

Diabetes insipidus occurs when problems with antidiuretic hormone (ADH) cause the body to remove too much water. A synthetic version of ADH can help restore a person’s levels and treat some types of ...

In the last two decades, interest in the neuropeptides oxytocin (OXT) and arginine vasopressin (AVP) has dramatically increased. Why are these brain chemicals of interest in autism spectrum disorder ...

The study covered in this summary was published on Research Square as a preprint and has not yet been peer reviewed. The researchers suggest using as a cutoff a copeptin level of >3.4 pmol/L at ...
