| | Vasopressin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Evidence for this comes from experimental studies, in several species, which indicate that the precise distribution of vasopressin and vasopressin receptors in the brain is associated with species-typical patterns of social behavior. | | | A very similar substance, lysine vasopressin (LVP) or lypressin, has the same function in pigs and is often used in human therapy. | | | In recent years there has been particular interest in the role of vasopressin in social behavior. |

| | Vasopressin occasionally produces the following side effects: nasal congestion, runny nose, itch or irritation of the nasal passages, abdominal cramps, headache and increased bowel movements. | | | To test their theory, the authors administered posterior pituitary powder, (as a source of vasopressin) to two year-old rats. | | | They had previously found that Vasopressin (ADH) restored a youthful pattern of fluid distribution in rats (Friedman, et al, 1960, 1963 [b]), and improved renal function in aging men (Ruol, et al, 1963). |

| | A syndrome of inappropriate secretion of vasopressin which results in the inability to put out dilute urine, perturbs fluid (and electrolyte) balance, and causes nausea, vomiting, muscle cramps, confusion and convulsions may occur in association with oat-cell lung cancer, pancreatic cancer, prostate cancer, and Hodgkin's disease as well as a number of other disorders. | | | Vasopressin definition - Medical Dictionary definitions of popular medical terms | | | Vasopressin has a vasopressor action and so can stimulate contraction of arteries and capillaries. |

| | Hormone secreted by the posterior pituitary gland (trade name Pitressin) and also by nerve endings in the hypothalamus; affects blood pressure by stimulating capillary muscles and reduces urine flow by affecting reabsorption of water by kidney tubules. | | | There are 2 forms, differing only in the amino acid at position 8: arginine vasopressin is widespread, while lysine vasopressin is found in pigs. |

| | Such precise control of body water and solute concentrations is a function of several hormones acting on both the kidneys and vascular system, but there is no doubt that antidiuretic hormone is a key player in this process. | | | It was for this effect that the name vasopressin was coined. | | | In healthy humans, antidiuretic hormone has minimal pressor effects. |
