Pressor and depressor aspects of vasopressin in the spontaneously hypertensive rat
… BP lowering properties of arginine vasopressin (AVP). The hypothesis that endothelin (ET) contributes to the exaggerated pressor responsiveness of the spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR) to AVP was tested by comparing the changes of BP, cardiac output (CO), and total peripheral conductance (TPC) …

COPEPTIN AS A SURROGATE MARKER OF ARGININE VASOPRESSIN:CLINICAL DIAGNOSTIC AND PROGNOSTIC APPLICATIONS IN ENDOCRINE AND NON-ENDOCRINE DISEASES
… in equimolar amounts as arginine vasopressin (AVP) from the posterior pituitary gland. Due to greater feasibility of laboratory assessment, it is used as a surrogate marker of AVP in several endocrine and non-endocrine disorders. AVP deficiency (previously known as central diabetes insipidus) …

Vasopressin decreases excitability in rat lateral amygdala neurons through inhibition of hyperpolarization-activated cationic current.
… The peptide hormones arginine-vasopressin (AVP) and oxytocin (OT) are strongly implicated in social behavior, and may also be involved in the pathophysiology of ASD. Here, we show that AVP causes an increase in excitability, through eliciting a decrease in action potential accommodation and …

A distributed multi-vehicle architecture for autonomous driving simulation with an application to autonomous valet parking
… Autonomous Valet Parking System (DMV-AVP) is introduced as an application layer that integrates infrastructure-assisted perception through a YOLOv5-based overhead camera module and a multi-vehicle AVP coordination framework for managing shared parking resources. The system enables …

Estradiol regulation of the neurohypophysial hormones in the goldfish, Carassius auratus.
… to the mammalian, arginine vasopressin (AVP) and oxytocin (OXT). In teleosts, arginine vasotocin (AVT) and isotocin (IST) replace AVP and OXT, respectively. In mammals, the NHs have distinct functions as AVP is involved with fluid homeostasis and blood pressure regulation whereas OXT is …

Effects of Calcium and Enzyme Supplementation on the Occurrence of Necrotic Enteritis
… 0 to 19, birds fed 0.9% Ca and 0.3% available P (avP) had decreased FI and improved FC compared to birds fed 0.9% Ca and 0.45% avP, while FI and FC were similar in birds fed diets with 0.6% Ca, regardless of avP level. Calcium x P x phytase interaction influenced BW or BWG from d 0-12. In general, …

NEW PHARMACOLOGICAL TOOLS FOR AUTISM RESEARCH: OXYTOCIN RECEPTOR MUTANT MICE AND ZEBRAFISH AS NEUROBEHAVIOURAL MODELS
… (unspecific binding to vasopressin (AVP) receptors) properties and the presence of peripheral side effects of OT, though, make this peptide an unsuitable target for a future clinical use. It is important, in this perspective, to characterize specific animal models in order to validate …

Regulation of Secretin the Neurohypophysis
… The presence of SCT and arginine-vasopressin (AVP) in the pituitary; secretin receptor (SCTR), vasopressin receptor 2 (AVP2R), and aquaporin-2 water channel (AQP-2) in the kidney were analyzed using the Western blot technique. Plasma SCT concentrations were measured by enzyme immunoassay (EIA) …

Naturally occurring variations in defensive burying behavior are associated with differences in central neuropeptide expression in the male rat
… the central expression of arginine vasopressin (AVP) and oxytocin (OT). Thus, relative to animals showing no significant levels of defensive burying activity, rats showing sustained elevations in defensive burying expressed higher levels of AVP mRNA and increased numbers of androgen receptor …

Adenovirus-associated pneumonia in South African children : presentation, clinical course and outcome
… and outcome of adenoviral-associated pneumonia (AVP) in children and identify risk factors associated with poor outcome. Methods: A retrospective study of laboratory-confirmed AVP cases was conducted between 1 January and 31 December 2011. The medical records of adenovirus PCR positive …

The effects of limb speed and limb preference on selected isokinetic strength and power measures during internal and external rotation of the shoulder
… torque acceleration energy (TAE), average power (AVP), and endurance ratio (ER) at isokinetic speeds of 60 and 300 degrees/second during internal and external rotation of the shoulder. Standard Cybex warm-up and test protocol were used for both test conditions. Test/retest reliability estimates …

Fluid retention in congestive heart failure-the role of natriuretic peptides and arginine vasopressin
… peptide (CNP) and arginine vasopressin (AVP) in CHF is not fully understood. Studies were done in 300days old male normal and cardiomyopathic hamsters with moderate CHF. Their body and heart weights were measured. Blood was collected for ANF measurement. Urine was collected for cAMP, cGMP …

Fully Distributed Control and Its Analog IC Design For Scalable Multiphase Voltage Regulators
… interleaving, Adaptive Voltage Position (AVP) and current sharing. To achieve interleaving, this dissertation introduces a novel distributed interleaving scheme that can easily achieve scalable phase interleaving without channel number limitation. Each channel's interleaving circuitry can …

Apple vision pro for intraoperative 3D tumor visualization and surgical guidance
… the feasibility of using the Apple Vision Pro (AVP) mixed-reality headset for visualizing and localizing brain tumors during neurosurgical procedures. A complete workflow was developed to overlay a CT-derived 3D tumor model onto a patient-specific head surface mesh obtained using LiDAR scanning …

The Role of Arginine Vasopressin Receptor 2 in Microvascular Hyperpermeability During Severe Sepsis and Septic Shock
… for this condition. Arginine vasopressin (AVP), a hypothalamic hormone, has been used exogenously in sepsis to promote vasoconstriction by activating AVP receptor 1 (V1R). However, recent evidence suggests that an increased fluid retention may be associated when AVP receptor 2 (V2R) is …

Role of testosterone in mediating prenatel ethanol effects on hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal activity in male rats
… elevation in arginine vasopressin (AVP) mRNA levels. GDX eliminated these differences among groups. The second study explored dose-related effects of testosterone on HPA regulation. Testosterone had less of an inhibitory effect on stress-induced CORT and LH increases in E than in PF …

The role of notch signaling in the development of the hypothalamic-pituitary axis and arcuate nucleus
… contains terminal axons of arginine vasopressin (AVP) neurons from the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN) and supraoptic nucleus (SON). As the pituitary develops, signals from the hypothalamus are necessary for pituitary induction and expansion. Little is known about the control of cues …
