چکیده

Vasopressin (AVP) secretion is principally under osmotic regulation, which is altered by nonosmotic stimuli. It is known that the manner of osmotic regulation of AVP secretion in hypoosmolar state of man consists of four types. The types have (A) random changes in plasma AVP without relation of plasma osmolality; (B) plasma AVP secretion correlated closely to plasma osmolality with a low osmotic threshold for AVP release; (C) nonsuppressible AVP secretion with normal osmotic release of AVP; (D) no abnormalities in AVP secretion. In this study, we found an entirely different type of AVP secretion from the above types in six patients with hyponatremia resulting from various causes during infusion of 5% hypertonic saline. To clarify the mechanism underlying the AVP secretion, we analyzed the interaction between osmotic and nonosmotic stimuli of AVP secretion in these patients. Despite hyponatremia, plasma AVP levels in all patients were not suppressed, which was attributed at least in part to the presence of nonosmotic stimuli for AVP release. These stimuli include nausea, hypotension, blood volume contraction, glucocorticoid deficiency or their combinations. Hypertonic saline infusion increased both serum sodium concentrations and plasma osmolality, although to subnormal levels, and concomitantly, alleviated some of the nonosmotic stimuli for AVP release formerly present in these patients. However, plasma AVP concentrations decreased rapidly during the infusion and reached the nadir in all patients. This phenomenon may be due to alleviation of nonosmotic stimuli for AVP release. Thus, the findings indicate that the potentiating effect of nonosmotic stimuli for AVP secretion may modify the osmotic regulation of AVP secretion in hypoosmolar state, resulting in the type of AVP secretion in this study.

Osmotic and nonosmotic control of vasopressin release.

While the existence of an osmotic control for vasopressin (AVP) release has been long recognized, development of a sensitive immunoassay has allowed for better understanding of factors affecting the threshold and sensitivity of AVP release. Individual variation, genetic, environmental, and species differences, and the nature of the solute providing the osmotic stimuli can significantly affect t...

The physiology of vasopressin release and the pathogenesis of impaired water excretion in adrenal, thyroid, and edematous disorders.

Osmotic control for vasopressin release has been recognized for several years. Further understanding of factors affecting the sensitivity and threshold of ADH release has been advanced by the technological development of a sensitive radioimmunoassay. Evidence suggesting that ADH secretion is also mediated by nonosmotic stimuli involving a separate anatomic pathway from the hypothalamic osmorece...

Copeptin,as a new Boimarker

everything that disturbs the homeostatic balance of the body can be defined as stress and any stress factor activating the hypothalamic- pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis causes an increase in arginine vasopressin (AVP) plasma concentrations. AVP is a 9 amino acid peptide in the ring structure and derived from pre-pro vasopressin. Pre-pro vasopressin is a pro hormone that synthesized by supraoptic ...

Neurophysiological involvement in hypervolemic hyponatremia - evoked by hypersecretion of vasopressin

Arginine vasopressin (AVP) is a neuropeptide mainly synthesized in the supraoptic and paraventricular nuclei in the hypothalamus and released from the posterior pituitary when physiological demands are increased. The major function of circulating AVP is to promote water retention and vasoconstriction, thereby maintaining hydromineral homeostasis and blood volume and pressure. Physiological regu...

Neuroendocrine control of body fluid metabolism.

Mammals control the volume and osmolality of their body fluids from stimuli that arise from both the intracellular and extracellular fluid compartments. These stimuli are sensed by two kinds of receptors: osmoreceptor-Na+ receptors and volume or pressure receptors. This information is conveyed to specific areas of the central nervous system responsible for an integrated response, which depends ...
