Renal Excretion of Arginine-Vasopressin in Microalbuminuric Diabetic Patients

  • Chapter
Drugs, Systemic Diseases, and the Kidney

Abstract

Enhanced activity of haemodynamic hormones have been reported to be involved in the development of renal lesions of diabetic kidney1,2. Apart from other pressor factors even plasma arginine-vasopressin (AVP) have been found to be increased in uncontrolled diabetic patients very probably reflecting both a hypovolemic status and an increase in “effective” extracellular fluid osmolality; however, high circulating AVP levels have also been observed in certain well controlled diabetic patients thus suggesting that an alteration of mechanisms regulating AVP secretion exists in diabetes mellitus3,4.
