Disease relevance of AVP

  • Five heart groups (cold) were perfused with AVP, D-ARG, L-ARG, L-NAME, or nothing (control), but after 2 hours they were perfused at low flow for 22 hours at 3.7 degrees C and again for 3 hours at 37.5 degrees C. ADE, butanedione monoxime, and NP were given for cardioprotection before, during, and after hypothermia [1].
  • BACKGROUND: The purpose of the study was to compare initial resuscitation with arginine vasopressin (AVP), phenylephrine (PE), or isotonic crystalloid fluid alone after traumatic brain injury and vasodilatory shock [2].
  • From these data we assume a simultaneous activation of peripheral and central release of AVP with antidiuretic and antipyretic effects by dehydration [3].
  • Measurements were performed at baseline, after E. coli lipopolysaccharide (LPS) administration and at 20 min intervals during incremental AVP infusion (n=8; 0.014, 0.029, 0.057, 0.114 and 0.229 IU kg(-1) h(-1), respectively) or infusion of saline (n =8) [4].
  • In this report, we present electrophysiological evidence that arginine-vasopressin (AVP) is a neurotransmitter in guinea pig inferior mesenteric ganglion (IMG) [5].

Chemical compound and disease context of AVP

 

Biological context of AVP

  • Left ventricular pressure and cardiac efficiency improved more in the postcold L-ARG group than in the postcold D-ARG, AVP, and L-NAME groups [1].
  • In addition, when AVP and inulin were injected into the amniotic sac in vivo during the last week of gestation, the AVP to inulin ratio decreased (P less than 0.05) over a 2-h period, indicating a swallowing-independent disappearance of AVP [16].
  • Moreover, slow excitatory postsynaptic potentials (EPSPs) elicited by repetitive nerve stimulation were attenuated in 75% of cells tested in the presence of excess AVP, and occasionally in the presence of the antagonist [5].
  • Coronary vasoconstriction was elicited by perfusing hearts with increasing concentrations of AVP in random order [17].
  • We found that AVP increased coronary vascular resistance more at CCF than at CPP [17].
 

Anatomical context of AVP

  • In our experimental conditions, in which myocytes were bathed in Ca(2+)-free high-potassium solutions, AVP-induced potentiation was observed without changes in [Ca2+]i measured by fura 2 fluorescence signals (estimated [Ca2+]i, approximately 80 nmol/L) [18].
  • A maximally active concentration of AVP (1 microM) increased adenylate cyclase activity in canine renal plasma membranes to a value 2.7 times that of basal activity [19].
  • Histidine and imidazole but not alanine (the histidine core structure) increase basal, GTP-, forskolin-, and AVP-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity in LLC-PK1 membranes [20].
  • We explored whether overexpression of one of the cAMP-PDE type isozymes, PDE-IV, in [8-Arg]-vasopressin (AVP) sensitive renal epithelial LLC-PK1 cells can prevent the hormone-elicited cAMP increase [21].
  • Tritiated AVP incubated in only amniotic fluid produced M2, with only slight M1 production [16].
 

Associations of AVP with chemical compounds

  • However, AVP stimulates adenylate cyclase activity in a dose-dependent fashion with an EC50 of 14 nM, whereas OT or dVDAVP has no effect at 100 nM [22].
  • These pharmacological properties are distinct from the previously described V1 and V2 vasopressin receptors and indicate the presence of a new class of AVP receptors [22].
  • Lysine vasopressin and the V1 antagonist [1-deaminopenicillamine, 2-(O-methyl)tyrosine]Arg8-vasopressin compete with high affinity with [3H]AVP binding, whereas the V2 agonist [1-deamino,4-valine]D-Arg8-vasopressin (dVDAVP) is 110 times less potent than AVP [22].
  • In warm groups, L-ARG did not alter basal flow or ADE, ACh, 5-HT, or NP responses, whereas L-NAME and AVP reduced basal flow and the ADE response, abolished ACh and 5-HT responses, and increased the NP response [1].
  • The explants in the group treated with 7.4 X 10(-5) M indomethacin for 60 min before the experiment and throughout the experiment responded to 6.5 X 10(-8) M angiotensin II with a 166 +/- 42% increase in AVP release over control release [23].

Other interactions of AVP

 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of AVP

  • The effect of prostaglandins (PGs) on arginine vasopressin (AVP) release was investigated using the male guinea pig hypothalamo-neurohypophyseal complex (HNC) in organ culture [23].
  • When fetal plasma, urine, and amniotic fluid were fractionated on HPLC, AVP was identified only in fetal plasma and urine [16].
  • Effluent fractions were monitored for corticotrophin-releasing factor (CRF) bioactivity, using the perfused isolated pituitary cell column bioassay, and radioimmunoassay for CRF-41, AVP, oxytocin, neurophysin, adrenocorticotrophic hormone (ACTH) and luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) [32].
  • In the presence of tetrodotoxin, OFQ/N hyperpolarized 48 of 48 SON magnocellular neurons, 24 of which were subsequently identified by immunocytochemistry as arginine vasopressin positive (AVP+) [33].
  • Production of cAMP could be detected in BIB27 cells even 12 h after treatment with AVP or SCT, whereas cAMP production in LLC-PK1 had returned to basal within 1 and 8 h, respectively [34].
