Potent and selective human vasopressin V1B receptor agonist (Ki values are 1.2, 151, 240 and 750 nM for V1B, V1A, Oxytocin and V2 receptors respectively). Stimulates ACTH and corticosterone secretion and exhibits negligible vasopressor activity in vivo.
Selective vasopressin V1A receptor antagonist. Inhibits vasopressin and oxytocin-induced increases in intracellular calcium concentrations in vitro (IC50 values are 5 and 30 nM respectively). Exhibits potent and prolonged antivasopressor activity and indu
SKF 100398, also known as d(CH2)5Tyr(Et)VAVP, is a particular analog of arginine vasopressin (AVP). It acts as a specific antagonist, specifically targeting the antidiuretic effect caused by both exogenous and endogenous AVP.
Pneumadin, rat (PNM) exerts a marked antidiuretic effect in animals has a functional AVP system. Pneumadin, rat (PNM) is a decapeptide, which possesses a potent stimulating effect on arginine-vasopressin (AVP) release.
