  3. Vasopressin receptor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vasopressin_receptor

    The well known antidiuretic effect of vasopressin occurs via activation of V 2 R. [1] Vasopressin regulates water excretion from the kidney by increasing the osmotic water permeability of the renal collecting duct – an effect that is explained by coupling of the V 2 R with the G s signaling pathway, which activates cAMP.

  4. Vasopressin (medication) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vasopressin_(medication)

    Although both vasopressors, vasopressin and epinephrine differ in that vasopressin does not have direct effects on cardiac contractility as epinephrine does. [18] Thus, vasopressin is theorized to be of increased benefit over epinephrine in cardiac arrest due to its properties of not increasing myocardial and cerebral oxygen demands. [18]

  5. Desmopressin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desmopressin

    Desmopressin (1-deamino-8-D-arginine vasopressin) is a synthetic form of the normal human hormone arginine vasopressin (the antidiuretic hormone, or ADH), a peptide containing nine amino acids. Compared to vasopressin, desmopressin's first amino acid has been deaminated , and the arginine at the eighth position is in the dextro rather than the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AVP_gene

    The work on vasopressin ultimately allowed researchers to work backwards and identify the gene responsible for this product's generation. This final stage of research began when Gainer and colleagues found a precursor protein to vasopressin in 1977. [11] The structure of the protein was subsequently discovered by Land in 1982.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vasopressin_receptor_1A

    Vasopressin receptor 1A (V1AR), or arginine vasopressin receptor 1A (officially called AVPR1A) is one of the three major receptor types for vasopressin (AVPR1B and AVPR2 being the others), and is present throughout the brain, as well as in the periphery in the liver, kidney, and vasculature. [5] AVPR1A is also known as: V1a vasopressin receptor

  9. Antidiuretic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antidiuretic

    An antidiuretic is a substance that helps to control fluid balance in an animal's body by reducing urination, [1] opposing diuresis. [2] Its effects are opposite that of a diuretic.
