Argipressin diacetate

Description: Argipressin (diacetate) (AVP (diacetate), also known as antidiuretic hormone (ADH)), is a nine-amino acid neuropeptide produced by the posterior pituitary gland. It plays a crucial role in maintaining fluid balance, osmolality, and cardiovascular function through interaction with three distinct G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs): Avpr1a (V1a), Avpr1b (V1b), and Avpr2 (V2). Argipressin (diacetate) also influences centrally regulated metabolic processes, highlighting its significance in physiological regulation [1].
