Vasopressin regulates the permeability of the apical membrane of collecting duct cells by increasing the exocytosis of aquaportin-2 vesicles. |
||
Vasopressin is synthesized by hypothalamic neurons with long axons that extend into the anterior pituitary. |
||
The vasopressin receptor on renal collecting duct cells is a G protein-coupled receptor located on the basolateral membrane. |
||
A person with central diabetes insipidus could be therapeutically managed with injections of vasopressin. |
