  • Title: Failure to demonstrate natriuretic activity in the posterior pituitary after immunoneutralization of the vasopressin content.
    Author: Ponec J, Földes O, Lichardus B.
    Journal: Horm Metab Res; 1991 Oct; 23(10):473-5. PubMed ID: 1761277.
    Abstract:
    The attempt to demonstrate the presence of a natriuretic substance in the posterior pituitary after immunoneutralization of the AVP content failed. Rats infused i.v. AVP-immunoneutralized posterior pituitary extract did not respond by natriuresis to a saline infusion, in contrast to those infused untreated posterior pituitary extract. Thus, vasopressin seems to be the natriuretic substance in the posterior pituitary extract.
