The role of antidiuretic hormone in cold-induced diuresis in the anaesthetized rat

The aim of this study was to investigate whether the increased diuresis in consequence of hypothermia is due to a depression of the hypothalamic release of antidiuretic hormone (ADH). The plasma concentration of antidiuretic hormone and the effect of intravenous (i.v.) administration of 65 ng kg−1 d...

Description
Summary:The aim of this study was to investigate whether the increased diuresis in consequence of hypothermia is due to a depression of the hypothalamic release of antidiuretic hormone (ADH). The plasma concentration of antidiuretic hormone and the effect of intravenous (i.v.) administration of 65 ng kg−1 desmopressin (selective V2‐receptor agonist) were determined in the anaesthetized rat. In spite of a 50% (P
