Arginine vasopressin receptor
Arginine vasopressin receptor - the biologic effects of arginine vasopressin (avp) are mediated by 3 receptor subtypes: the v1a and v1b receptors that activate phospholipases via g alpha (q/11), and the v2 receptor that activates adenylyl cyclase by interacting with g alpha (s). This subfamily of g-protein coupled receptors also includes oxt receptors. Their activity is mediated by g proteins which stimulate a phosphatidylinositol-calcium second messenger system. All are involved in the control of body fluid osmolality, blood volume, blood pressure, and vascular tone. (from omim)
