Metabolically stable apelin analogs: development and functional role in water balance and cardiovascular function.
Clin Sci (Lond)

Center for Interdisciplinary Research in Biology, College de France, Institut National de la Santé et de la Recherche Médicale, Paris, France.
Apelin, a (neuro) vasoactive peptide, plays a prominent role in controlling water balance and cardiovascular functions. Apelin and its receptor co-localize with vasopressin in magnocellular vasopressinergic neurons. Apelin receptors (Apelin-Rs) are also expressed in the collecting ducts of the kidney, where vasopressin type 2 receptors are also present.

Background: Arginine infusion stimulates copeptin secretion, a surrogate marker of arginine vasopressin (AVP), thereby serving as a diagnostic test in the differential diagnosis of suspected AVP deficiency (AVP-D). Yet, the precise mechanism underlying the stimulatory effect of arginine on the vasopressinergic system remains elusive. Arginine plays a significant role in the urea cycle and increases the production of urea.

Background: The pathophysiology of polyuria and polydipsia secondary to exogenous glucocorticoid excess is incompletely understood.
Objective: Investigate plasma AVP (pAVP) and serum CoP (sCoP) concentrations in healthy dogs before, during, and after abrupt discontinuation of a long-term course of orally administered prednisolone.
Animals: Eight healthy neutered young adult research Beagles.
Diagnosis of arginine vasopressin deficiency in a patient with 10 years of polyuria and polydipsia following an Epstein-Barr virus infection.

Polyuria-polydipsia syndrome is composed of arginine vasopressin deficiency, arginine vasopressin resistance and primary polydipsia and are characterised by severe polyuria with hypotonic urine. The water deprivation test is commonly used to indirectly assess the vasopressin response to water deprivation. We report a woman in her 20s who demonstrated severe polyuria (11-12 L/day) on submitting a 24-hour urine sample for analysis.

Postoperative atrial fibrillation complicates 15-40% of cardiac surgery cases and is associated with various adverse health outcomes including high mortality. Although vasopressin administration decreases postoperative atrial fibrillation in on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting, its use in off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting has not been investigated. Therefore, we evaluated the effect of vasopressin use in off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting.
