Vasopressin, also named antidiuretic hormone (ADH), arginine vasopressin (AVP) is the main hormone responsible for water maintenance in the body through the antidiuretic actions in the kidney. The posterior pituitary into the blood releases vasopressin formed in the hypothalamus. Hypothalamic osmotic neurons are responsible to initiate the cascade for AVP actions. The effects of AVP peptide includes activation of V2 receptors which stimulate the formation of cyclic AMP (cAMP) and phosphorylation of water channels aquaporin 2 (AQP2) in the collecting duct. AVP also has vasoconstrictor effects through V1a receptors in the vasculature, while V1b is found in the nervous system. V1a and b receptors increases intracellular Ca |
